PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and SousChef, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for generate_ansible_upgrade_test_plan:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"generate_ansible_upgrade_test_plan": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "generate_ansible_upgrade_test_plan_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
