Why sap_select_radio_button needs a policy

Selecting a radio button triggers a UI interaction in SAP GUI that changes the state of the current screen/form. This is an Execute action as it drives an external application (SAP GUI) through the Scripting API. While selecting a radio button alone is low-impact, within an SAP workflow it can change transaction behavior or flow, potentially leading to unintended operations.

POLICY

How to control sap_select_radio_button

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "sap_select_radio_button": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "sap_select_radio_button_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

sap_select_radio_button stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

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