PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and MCP Framework Personal, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For agent_cancel, this is the rule to start with:
agent_cancel is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect MCP Framework Personal, apply this rule, and every agent_cancel call is checked against it from then on.
