How to control cort.think.details

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "cort.think.details": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "cort.think.details_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 60,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

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