Why setup_kion_config needs a policy

The name suggests configuration setup, which could be Write (storing config) or Read (checking config), but with an empty description there's insufficient information to classify confidently. Configuration setup is most likely a Write operation, but since the description is empty, confidence is low. Defaulting to Other given the ambiguity, though Write is plausible.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'setup_kion_config' and empty description. No information about what the tool does beyond configuration setup implied by name.

How to control setup_kion_config

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

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

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

  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
