AI agents use suggest_layout to create or modify resources in Adaptive Cards. 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 suggest_layout 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 Adaptive Cards.

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

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access suggest_layout gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so suggest_layout only ever does what you allow.

What does the suggest_layout tool do? +

Recommend the best Adaptive Card layout pattern for a given description.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Adaptive Cards MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on suggest_layout? +

Register the Adaptive Cards MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for suggest_layout: 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 Adaptive Cards. Nothing to install.

What risk level is suggest_layout? +

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

Can I rate-limit suggest_layout? +

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

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

suggest_layout is provided by the Adaptive Cards MCP server (adaptive-cards-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Adaptive Cards tool call.
