RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs record_fix_attempt safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Nodebench, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For record_fix_attempt, this is the rule to start with:

record_fix_attempt Rate-limited

record_fix_attempt stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
