AI agents use access_review to create or modify resources in Accessoracle. 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 access_review 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 Accessoracle.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

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

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

What does the access_review tool do? +

Track access recertification reviews. Set add=true to log a review.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Accessoracle MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on access_review? +

Register the Accessoracle MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for access_review: 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 Accessoracle. Nothing to install.

What risk level is access_review? +

access_review is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit access_review? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the access_review 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 access_review completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for access_review. 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 access_review? +

access_review is provided by the Accessoracle MCP server (https://tooloracle.io/access/mcp/). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Accessoracle tool call.
