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

Purchase a virtual phone number for SMS verification. Returns order_id and phone_number. Use check_sms to poll for the verification code, or use wait_for_code to do it automatically.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Sms MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Sms MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for virtualsms_create_order: 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 Sms. Nothing to install.
virtualsms_create_order 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 virtualsms_create_order 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 virtualsms_create_order. 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.
virtualsms_create_order is provided by the Sms MCP server (virtualsms-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
