Medium Risk

cab_enable

Enable chain abstraction on an existing vault by installing the ZeroDev intent executor. This is a one-time setup -- new vaults have it enabled automatically.

Part of the Clawvault server.

cab_enable can modify Clawvault data, with no limits today. PolicyLayer puts allow, deny, and rate-limit rules on every call. Live in minutes.

AI agents use cab_enable to create or modify resources in Clawvault. 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 cab_enable 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 Clawvault.

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

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

What does the cab_enable tool do? +

Enable chain abstraction on an existing vault by installing the ZeroDev intent executor. This is a one-time setup -- new vaults have it enabled automatically.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Clawvault MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on cab_enable? +

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

What risk level is cab_enable? +

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

Can I rate-limit cab_enable? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the cab_enable 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 cab_enable completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for cab_enable. 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 cab_enable? +

cab_enable is provided by the Clawvault MCP server (clawvault-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 Clawvault tool call.
