WHAT IT DOES

What plan_failure_recovery does on Kiln

AI agents use plan_failure_recovery to create or update resources in Kiln, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Kiln environment.

RISK

Why plan_failure_recovery is rated Medium

An AI agent can call plan_failure_recovery faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Kiln by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs plan_failure_recovery safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Kiln, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For plan_failure_recovery, this is the rule to start with:

plan_failure_recovery Rate-limited

plan_failure_recovery 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.
