AI agents use register_device to create or modify resources in Trillboards DOOH Advertising. 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 register_device 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 Trillboards DOOH Advertising.
Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Register or update a device in the partner's network. WHEN TO USE: - Adding a new screen/kiosk/vending machine to the network - Updating device location or configuration - Re-registering a device after maintenance RETURNS: - device_id: Your internal device ID (echoed back) - trillboards_device_id: Internal Trillboards device ID - fingerprint: Device fingerprint (e.g., "P_abc123") - embed_url: URL to load in the device's WebView - status: Device status EXAMPLE: User: "Register a vending machine in NYC" register_device({ device_id: "vending-001-nyc", name: "NYC Office Lobby Vending", device_type: "vending_machine", location: { lat: 40.7128, lng: -74.0060, city: "New York", state: "NY", venue_type: "office" } }). It is categorised as a Write tool in the Trillboards DOOH Advertising MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Trillboards DOOH Advertising MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for register_device: 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 Trillboards DOOH Advertising. Nothing to install.
register_device 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 register_device 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 register_device. 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.
register_device is provided by the Trillboards DOOH Advertising MCP server (https://api.trillboards.com/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
