Set or clear the persistent editorial bucket label for an existing Program Queue item. Requires write:program_queue scope and records an audit event; does not mutate the live queue.

AI agents use set_programming_bucket to create or modify resources in PoolParty Main Stage Airtime. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.
Without a policy, an AI agent could call set_programming_bucket repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach PoolParty Main Stage Airtime.
Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access set_programming_bucket gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Set or clear the persistent editorial bucket label for an existing Program Queue item. Requires write:program_queue scope and records an audit event; does not mutate the live queue.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the PoolParty Main Stage Airtime MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the PoolParty Main Stage Airtime MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for set_programming_bucket: 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 PoolParty Main Stage Airtime. Nothing to install.
set_programming_bucket 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 set_programming_bucket 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 set_programming_bucket. 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.
set_programming_bucket is provided by the PoolParty Main Stage Airtime MCP server (https://www.poolparty.io/api/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
