Create and solve a small steady thermal bar demo through direct Workbench batch.
AI agents invoke create_and_run_thermal_bar_demo to trigger actions in Ansys Workbench. 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.
This tool both creates a simulation system and executes a solver (batch processing) to obtain results. The 'solve' and 'batch' aspects place it firmly in Execute territory. Misuse could consume significant computational resources or trigger unintended simulation workflows in a production Workbench environment.
From the tool's definition 'Create and solve a small steady thermal bar demo through direct Workbench batch' — triggers a batch execution process in Ansys Workbench to create and solve a simulation
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_and_run_thermal_bar_demo gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Ansys Workbench, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create_and_run_thermal_bar_demo:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"create_and_run_thermal_bar_demo": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "create_and_run_thermal_bar_demo_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 10,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}create_and_run_thermal_bar_demo 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.
Free to start. No card required.
Create and solve a small steady thermal bar demo through direct Workbench batch. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Ansys Workbench MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the Ansys Workbench MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_and_run_thermal_bar_demo: 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 Ansys Workbench. Nothing to install.
create_and_run_thermal_bar_demo 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 create_and_run_thermal_bar_demo 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 create_and_run_thermal_bar_demo. 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.
create_and_run_thermal_bar_demo is provided by the Ansys Workbench MCP server (hongwenwang36-eng/ansys-workbench-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Ansys Workbench, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
