suggest_edge_cases

Suggest comprehensive edge cases for a given function/code. Returns categorized edge cases: happy path, error handling, boundary, type coercion, integration.

Part of the Ai Validation server.

suggest_edge_cases is read-only, but an agent in a loop can still rack up calls and cost. PolicyLayer caps every call before it runs. Live in minutes.

AI agents call suggest_edge_cases to retrieve information from Ai Validation without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.

Even though suggest_edge_cases only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.

Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so suggest_edge_cases only ever does what you allow.

What does the suggest_edge_cases tool do? +

Suggest comprehensive edge cases for a given function/code. Returns categorized edge cases: happy path, error handling, boundary, type coercion, integration.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Ai Validation MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on suggest_edge_cases? +

Register the Ai Validation MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for suggest_edge_cases: 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 Ai Validation. Nothing to install.

What risk level is suggest_edge_cases? +

suggest_edge_cases is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit suggest_edge_cases? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the suggest_edge_cases 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.

How do I block suggest_edge_cases completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for suggest_edge_cases. 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.

What MCP server provides suggest_edge_cases? +

suggest_edge_cases is provided by the Ai Validation MCP server (ai-validation-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Ai Validation tool call.
