WHAT IT DOES

What generate-image does on TypeScript MCP Server Boilerplate

AI agents invoke generate-image to trigger actions in TypeScript MCP Server Boilerplate. 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.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why generate-image needs a policy

The tool calls an external API (Hugging Face) to execute an AI image generation model. This is an Execute category action as it triggers an external operation with effects depending on the provided prompt. Severity is medium because misuse could generate inappropriate content or incur API costs, but it does not directly delete data or move money.

From the tool's definition "텍스트 프롬프트를 입력받아 AI 이미지를 생성합니다. Hugging Face FLUX.1-schnell 모델을 사용합니다." — triggers an external AI model (Hugging Face FLUX.1-schnell) to generate an image based on a text prompt

generate-image Rate-limited

generate-image 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.
