What pwntools_exploit does on Intellirecon Console
AI agents invoke pwntools_exploit to trigger actions in Intellirecon Console. 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.

The rule that runs pwntools_exploit safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Intellirecon Console, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For pwntools_exploit, this is the rule to start with:
pwntools_exploit 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 Intellirecon Console, apply this rule, and every pwntools_exploit call is checked against it from then on.
