AI agents use move_policy_package_to_folder to create or update resources in Fortimanager — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Fortimanager environment.
The tool modifies the organizational structure of policy packages by moving them to different folders. This is a reversible write operation—the policy package can be moved back to its original location. While it does not permanently delete data, it reorganizes security policy configuration in FortiManager, which is a critical network security appliance.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'move_policy_package_to_folder' which indicates moving/reorganizing a policy package within a FortiManager folder hierarchy. The description is empty, limiting direct evidence of the exact operation.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access move_policy_package_to_folder gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Fortimanager, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for move_policy_package_to_folder:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"move_policy_package_to_folder": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "move_policy_package_to_folder_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}move_policy_package_to_folder stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

move_policy_package_to_folder. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Fortimanager MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Fortimanager MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for move_policy_package_to_folder: 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 Fortimanager. Nothing to install.
move_policy_package_to_folder 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 move_policy_package_to_folder 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 move_policy_package_to_folder. 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.
move_policy_package_to_folder is provided by the Fortimanager MCP server (jmpijll/fortimanager-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Fortimanager, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
