AI agents use ui_states 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 ui_states 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 ui_states 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.
Generate a complete WCAG-compliant UI state palette from a brand hex. Returns colours for: brand, hover, active, disabled, focus ring, success, warning, error, info, surface subtle, surface strong. All states computed for contrast against your background colour. Returns hex, contrast ratio, WCAG grade, and usage note for each state. Includes CSS custom properties ready to paste. Supports light and dark mode. Use before building any UI component system.. 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 ui_states: 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.
ui_states 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 ui_states 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 ui_states. 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.
ui_states 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.
