What save_attachment does on Huly
AI agents use save_attachment to create or update resources in Huly, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Huly environment.
Why save_attachment is rated Medium
This tool modifies state (bookmarking/saving) in a reversible manner typical of Write operations. It creates or updates a reference without irreversibly deleting, destroying, or executing external code. The idempotent nature and limited scope (bookmarking only) suggest low severity even if misused by an agent.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Save/bookmark an attachment for later reference' and is explicitly 'Idempotent when already saved', indicating a reversible state change without data loss or financial impact.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs save_attachment safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Huly, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For save_attachment, this is the rule to start with:
save_attachment 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 Huly, apply this rule, and every save_attachment call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about save_attachment
Save/bookmark an attachment for later reference. Idempotent when already saved. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Huly MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Huly MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for save_attachment: 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 Huly. Nothing to install.
save_attachment is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the save_attachment 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for save_attachment. 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.
save_attachment is provided by the Huly MCP server (@firfi/huly-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
