Apply one or more AI tags to a thread (manually). When to use: - User wants to label a conversation with one or more tags - User asks to categorize or tag a thread Provide the thread_id (integer) and an array of tag_ids to apply. If a tag is already applied it will be updated to is_manual=true.

AI agents use ai_tags_add_to_thread to create or modify resources in Dialogbrain. 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 ai_tags_add_to_thread 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 Dialogbrain.
Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access ai_tags_add_to_thread gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:
Other write tools across the catalogue. The same approach applies to each: rate-limit and validate the arguments.
Apply one or more AI tags to a thread (manually). When to use: - User wants to label a conversation with one or more tags - User asks to categorize or tag a thread Provide the thread_id (integer) and an array of tag_ids to apply. If a tag is already applied it will be updated to is_manual=true.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Dialogbrain MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Dialogbrain MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for ai_tags_add_to_thread: 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 Dialogbrain. Nothing to install.
ai_tags_add_to_thread is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the ai_tags_add_to_thread 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for ai_tags_add_to_thread. 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.
ai_tags_add_to_thread is provided by the Dialogbrain MCP server (https://api.dialogbrain.com/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
