What instrumentation_session_merge does on Jshookmcp
AI agents use instrumentation_session_merge to create or update resources in Jshookmcp, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Jshookmcp environment.
Why instrumentation_session_merge is rated Medium
Creates new merged data structure by copying and remapping existing session content without deletion.
From the tool's definition copies operations and artifacts from both sources, creates new session

The rule that runs instrumentation_session_merge 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 instrumentation_session_merge, this is the rule to start with:
instrumentation_session_merge 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 instrumentation_session_merge call is checked against it from then on.
