RISK

Why sit_with is rated Low

This tool appears to be a reflective/contemplative operation that holds state in memory or context without reading, writing, executing, or deleting data. It performs no data retrieval, modification, or execution — it is a pause/witness action. Given the server's 'continuity, witness, recovery' framing, this is likely a semantic state marker rather than a data operation, placing it in Other.

From the tool's definition Hold a difficult state without rushing to resolve it; useful for witness before action.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs sit_with safely

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

sit_with Rate-limited

sit_with gets a rate cap, and everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
