AI agents use directive_executions to create or modify resources in Aifp. 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 directive_executions 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 Aifp.

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

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access directive_executions 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 directive_executions only ever does what you allow.

What does the directive_executions tool do? +

Record directive execution statistics. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Aifp MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on directive_executions? +

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

What risk level is directive_executions? +

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

Can I rate-limit directive_executions? +

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

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

directive_executions is provided by the Aifp MCP server (aryanduntley/AIFP). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Aifp tool call.
