What pages_open_document does on AirMCP
AI agents invoke pages_open_document to trigger actions in AirMCP. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
Why pages_open_document is rated High
Opening a document triggers an external application (Pages) to launch and load a file, which is an external operation beyond simple data retrieval. It causes a side effect in the OS environment (launching/activating an application). This goes beyond a pure Read operation, making Execute the most appropriate category.

The rule that runs pages_open_document safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and AirMCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For pages_open_document, this is the rule to start with:
pages_open_document stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect AirMCP, apply this rule, and every pages_open_document call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about pages_open_document

Register the Air MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for pages_open_document: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches AirMCP. Nothing to install.
pages_open_document is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the pages_open_document rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for pages_open_document. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
