AI agents use import_workflow to create or modify resources in Agentled. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call import_workflow repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Agentled.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access import_workflow gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so import_workflow only ever does what you allow.

What does the import_workflow tool do? +

Import a workflow from an export JSON into this workspace. Accepts the full WorkflowExport object (from export_workflow) and creates a new workflow with fresh IDs. Associated pages are recreated. Import provenance is recorded in the workflow metadata. Use this together with export_workflow to move workflows between environments. Tip: register separate MCP servers for sandbox and prod, export from one, import into the other.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Agentled MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on import_workflow? +

Register the Agentled MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for import_workflow: 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 Agentled. Nothing to install.

What risk level is import_workflow? +

import_workflow is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit import_workflow? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the import_workflow 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.

How do I block import_workflow completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for import_workflow. 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.

What MCP server provides import_workflow? +

import_workflow is provided by the Agentled MCP server (@agentled/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Agentled tool call.
