Why set_resource_application_data_entry needs a policy

This tool modifies application metadata or state attached to a resource (likely a note or attachment in Evernote) without permanently deleting data. It is reversible (the data entry can be changed or cleared), making it Write rather than Destructive.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'set_resource_application_data_entry' indicates modification of application data associated with a resource.

POLICY

How to control set_resource_application_data_entry

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Evernote MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for set_resource_application_data_entry:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "set_resource_application_data_entry": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "set_resource_application_data_entry_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

set_resource_application_data_entry 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.

Create a free account and register Evernote MCP Server — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
