retry_deploy can trigger actions in Fractera, with no limits today. PolicyLayer puts allow, deny, and rate-limit rules on every call. Live in minutes.

AI agents invoke retry_deploy to trigger processes or run actions in Fractera. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.

retry_deploy can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. PolicyLayer enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.

Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access retry_deploy gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

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

What does the retry_deploy tool do? +

Retry a failed deployment using a server_token (from the failure email, the deploy-progress UI, or the dashboard). Wipes the previous broken install and runs a fresh deploy on the SAME server. Returns a new session_id — poll with check_status. Use this when the user reports a failed deploy or pastes a server_token.. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Fractera MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on retry_deploy? +

Register the Fractera MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for retry_deploy: 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 Fractera. Nothing to install.

What risk level is retry_deploy? +

retry_deploy is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit retry_deploy? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the retry_deploy 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 retry_deploy completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for retry_deploy. 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 retry_deploy? +

retry_deploy is provided by the Fractera MCP server (https://www.fractera.ai/api/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Fractera tool call.
