AI agents use submit_feedback to create or modify resources in OpenAccountants. 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 submit_feedback 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 OpenAccountants.

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 submit_feedback only ever does what you allow.

What does the submit_feedback tool do? +

When the user finds an error in a skill, says rates look outdated, or wants to suggest an improvement, call this to generate a pre-filled GitHub Issue URL. The URL opens in the user's browser with the report partially filled — they review and submit. This creates a public feedback loop that maintains skill quality over time. Use whenever the user says 'this seems wrong', 'the rate is outdated', 'add this rule', or asks how to flag an issue.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the OpenAccountants MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on submit_feedback? +

Register the OpenAccountants MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for submit_feedback: 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 OpenAccountants. Nothing to install.

What risk level is submit_feedback? +

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

Can I rate-limit submit_feedback? +

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

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

submit_feedback is provided by the OpenAccountants MCP server (pypi:openaccountants-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every OpenAccountants tool call.
