Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs create_subscription safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and FavCRM, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For create_subscription, this is the rule to start with:
create_subscription 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect FavCRM, apply this rule, and every create_subscription call is checked against it from then on.

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_subscription 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_subscription. 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.
