AI agents use session_design to create or modify resources in Colour Memory. 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 session_design 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 Colour Memory.
Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access session_design gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:
Other write tools across the catalogue. The same approach applies to each: rate-limit and validate the arguments.
One-call compound tool. Submit a concept, medium, audience, and constraints — receive a complete design package: historically grounded palette, cultural narrative, commercial paint matches, WCAG accessibility check, illuminant behaviour, and a ready-made image generation prompt. Replaces chaining query_conceptual + palette_from_concept + colour_story + match_paint_system + accessibility_check + get_colour_metrics. Use when an AI agent or user needs a complete, deployable colour direction in a single call. Not for iterative refinement — use individual tools for that.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Colour Memory MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Colour Memory MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for session_design: 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 Colour Memory. Nothing to install.
session_design 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 session_design 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 session_design. 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.
session_design is provided by the Colour Memory MCP server (https://colour-memory-api-production.up.railway.app/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
