AI agents use draft_motion_from_matter to create or modify resources in Transaction Coordinator. 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 draft_motion_from_matter 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 Transaction Coordinator.
Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Kick off an AI-drafted motion using a saved PrimaCoda matter as the source of facts. Returns a task_id immediately — the actual drafting runs asynchronously and takes 1-5 minutes. Poll with check_motion_status. Use this instead of asking the customer to upload PDFs again. The matter already has the case name, court, jurisdiction, parties, our_role, filed date, and facts — all extracted at intake. Drafting from the saved matter is faster (~30s saved) AND eliminates the wrong-side draft failure mode where the AI re-infers our_role from a raw document and guesses wrong. Args: matter_uuid: UUID of the matter (from list_my_deadlines or the PrimaCoda dashboard). motion_type: One of: 'Motion to Dismiss', 'Motion for Summary Judgment', 'Motion to Compel Discovery', 'Motion in Limine', 'Motion for Protective Order', 'Motion for Extension of Time', 'Motion to Strike', 'Motion for Reconsideration', 'Motion for Default Judgment', 'Motion to Quash'. Other values pass through. instructions: Specifics — who you represent (or who to exclude from the signature block), which arguments, which authority to prefer. Strongly recommended: vague instructions yield vague motions. api_key: Your PrimaCoda MCP API key (starts 'pck_').. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Transaction Coordinator MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Transaction Coordinator MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for draft_motion_from_matter: 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 Transaction Coordinator. Nothing to install.
draft_motion_from_matter 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 draft_motion_from_matter 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 draft_motion_from_matter. 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.
draft_motion_from_matter is provided by the Transaction Coordinator MCP server (https://primacoda.halinc.tech/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
