AI agents use generate_image to create or modify resources in Vap E. 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 generate_image 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 Vap E.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so generate_image only ever does what you allow.

What does the generate_image tool do? +

Generate an AI image from text prompt using VAP (Flux2 Pro). Returns a task ID for async tracking. Cost: $0.18. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Vap E MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on generate_image? +

Register the Vap E MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for generate_image: 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 Vap E. Nothing to install.

What risk level is generate_image? +

generate_image is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit generate_image? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the generate_image 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.

How do I block generate_image completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for generate_image. 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.

What MCP server provides generate_image? +

generate_image is provided by the Vap E MCP server (https://api.vapagent.com/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Vap E tool call.
