AI agents use create_attestation to create or modify resources in Shukashake. 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 create_attestation 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 Shukashake.

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 create_attestation only ever does what you allow.

What does the create_attestation tool do? +

Create a verifiable Shuka attestation for any claim or data. Use this when you need to: - Prove a claim is true with cryptographic certainty - Create an audit trail for data being shared - Attest to compliance, consent, or authorization - Generate a portable proof that other agents can verify Returns a proof token (shk_v1.xxx.yyy) that anyone can verify.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Shukashake MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on create_attestation? +

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

What risk level is create_attestation? +

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

Can I rate-limit create_attestation? +

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

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

create_attestation is provided by the Shukashake MCP server (cdonoyan/Auron_Shuka). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Shukashake tool call.
