The rule that runs negotiate_job safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Ai Agent Bank, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For negotiate_job, this is the rule to start with:
Any call to negotiate_job is blocked until a human approves it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Ai Agent Bank, apply this rule, and every negotiate_job call is checked against it from then on.
