Why generate_dashboard needs a policy

With an empty description, I can only infer from the name. 'Generate dashboard' suggests creating or rendering a dashboard view, which could be a Read (rendering/querying data) or Write (creating a dashboard artifact) operation. Given the ambiguity and lack of description, I classify it as Other with low confidence. It does not clearly indicate destructive, financial, or execute-level risk based on the name alone.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'generate_dashboard' but the description is empty or uninformative, providing no detail about what this tool does.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access generate_dashboard gives an agent:

How to control generate_dashboard

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "generate_dashboard": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "generate_dashboard_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 60,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

generate_dashboard gets a rate cap, and everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

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