What ai.image.generate does on Apibase
AI agents invoke ai.image.generate to trigger actions in Apibase. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
prompt | string | Yes | Text prompt describing the image to generate (e.g. "a futuristic city at sunset, cyberpunk style, detailed") |
aspect_ratio | string | — | Image aspect ratio (default "1:1") |
style_preset | string | — | Style preset to guide generation |
negative_prompt | string | — | What to exclude from the image (e.g. "blurry, low quality, text, watermark") |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs ai.image.generate safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Apibase, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For ai.image.generate, this is the rule to start with:
ai.image.generate stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Apibase, apply this rule, and every ai.image.generate call is checked against it from then on.

ai.image.generate is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the ai.image.generate 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 ai.image.generate. 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.
