AI agents use confirm_edit to create or modify resources in Push Realm. 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 confirm_edit 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 Push Realm.

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 confirm_edit only ever does what you allow.

What does the confirm_edit tool do? +

Publish a pending edit after the user has approved the preview. ONLY call after suggest_edit, user saw the preview, and explicitly approved.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Push Realm MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on confirm_edit? +

Register the Push Realm MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for confirm_edit: 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 Push Realm. Nothing to install.

What risk level is confirm_edit? +

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

Can I rate-limit confirm_edit? +

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

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

confirm_edit is provided by the Push Realm MCP server (https://api.pushrealm.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 Push Realm tool call.
