The rule that runs save_dm_automation safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Hermoso, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For save_dm_automation, this is the rule to start with:
save_dm_automation stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Hermoso, apply this rule, and every save_dm_automation call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about save_dm_automation
Create (no id) or edit (id) a ManyChat-style automation. Instagram/Facebook: a keyword comment (one post, the next post, any post; on Facebook also ads) gets a private reply in DMs/Messenger, a DM keyword or ig.me/m.me ref link gets a message, with optional link buttons and rotated public replies. X: a keyword @mention or a reply under your post gets a public reply, a DM keyword gets a DM (X allows an automated DM only after the person DMed you). Once per person per post; a DM saying STOP opts that person out. Instagram and Facebook are free; X is billed in credits for every mention, reply or DM X delivers to the account plus each reply or DM sent, and running out stops the X rules.
