WHAT IT DOES

What export_current_frame does on Aos

AI agents use export_current_frame to create or update resources in Aos, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Aos environment.

RISK

Why export_current_frame is rated Medium

Creates a new image file from current playhead position; reversible write operation with minimal blast radius.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs export_current_frame safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Aos, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For export_current_frame, this is the rule to start with:

export_current_frame Rate-limited

export_current_frame 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.
