Why protect_export_clip is rated Medium

An AI agent can call protect_export_clip faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in UniFi Access MCP by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs protect_export_clip safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and UniFi Access MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For protect_export_clip, this is the rule to start with:

protect_export_clip Rate-limited

protect_export_clip stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
