WHAT IT DOES

What neuron_update_bot does on Neuron

AI agents use neuron_update_bot to create or update resources in Neuron, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Neuron environment.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`id`	string	Yes	Unique identifier (UUID) of the bot to update
`name`	string	—	New display name for the bot
`llmModel`	string	—	OpenRouter model ID (e.g., 'google/gemini-2.5-flash-lite', 'openrouter/auto')
`maxTokens`	number	—	Maximum number of tokens the bot can generate per response
`assignment`	string	—	One-sentence role definition for the bot (max 2000 chars)
`systemPrompt`	string	—	New system prompt defining the bot's behavior and personality
`llmTemperature`	number	—	Temperature parameter controlling response randomness (0 = deterministic, 2 = creative)
`fallbackMessage`	string	—	Message sent when the bot cannot understand user input (max 2000 chars)
`greetingMessage`	string	—	Automatic greeting sent when a new conversation starts (max 2000 chars)
`escalationPrompt`	string	—	Prompt template used when escalating to a human agent (max 5000 chars)

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs neuron_update_bot safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Neuron, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For neuron_update_bot, this is the rule to start with:

neuron_update_bot Rate-limited

neuron_update_bot 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 Neuron, apply this rule, and every neuron_update_bot call is checked against it from then on.
