devplan_generate_executor

Generate an executor agent file (.claude/agents/{project}-executor.md). This creates a specialized Haiku-powered agent for executing subtasks with full project context.

Part of the DevPlan MCP Server server.

devplan_generate_executor can modify DevPlan MCP Server data, with no limits today. PolicyLayer puts allow, deny, and rate-limit rules on every call. Live in minutes.

AI agents use devplan_generate_executor to create or modify resources in DevPlan MCP Server. 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 devplan_generate_executor 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 DevPlan MCP Server.

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 devplan_generate_executor only ever does what you allow.

What does the devplan_generate_executor tool do? +

Generate an executor agent file (.claude/agents/{project}-executor.md). This creates a specialized Haiku-powered agent for executing subtasks with full project context.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the DevPlan MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on devplan_generate_executor? +

Register the DevPlan MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for devplan_generate_executor: 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 DevPlan MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is devplan_generate_executor? +

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

Can I rate-limit devplan_generate_executor? +

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

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

devplan_generate_executor is provided by the DevPlan MCP Server MCP server (https://devplan-mcp-server.mike-c63.workers.dev/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every DevPlan MCP Server tool call.
