response-cache-manager

Manage in-memory response caching with TTL and invalidation (per-isolate, best-effort).

Part of the Api Composition Gateway server.

response-cache-manager can modify Api Composition Gateway data, with no limits today. PolicyLayer puts allow, deny, and rate-limit rules on every call. Live in minutes.

AI agents use response-cache-manager to create or modify resources in Api Composition Gateway. 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 response-cache-manager 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 Api Composition Gateway.

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 response-cache-manager only ever does what you allow.

What does the response-cache-manager tool do? +

Manage in-memory response caching with TTL and invalidation (per-isolate, best-effort).. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Api Composition Gateway MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on response-cache-manager? +

Register the Api Composition Gateway MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for response-cache-manager: 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 Api Composition Gateway. Nothing to install.

What risk level is response-cache-manager? +

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

Can I rate-limit response-cache-manager? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the response-cache-manager 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 response-cache-manager completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for response-cache-manager. 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 response-cache-manager? +

response-cache-manager is provided by the Api Composition Gateway MCP server (https://api.lazy-mac.com/api-composition-gateway/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Api Composition Gateway tool call.
