AI agents use cursor_history_migrate to create or modify resources in Cursor History. 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 cursor_history_migrate 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 Cursor History.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

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

Can I rate-limit cursor_history_migrate? +

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

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for cursor_history_migrate. 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.
