The rule that runs adb_file_push safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Jshookmcp, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For adb_file_push, this is the rule to start with:
adb_file_push 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Jshookmcp, apply this rule, and every adb_file_push call is checked against it from then on.

adb_file_push 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 adb_file_push 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 adb_file_push. 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.
