What pm_vote does on Basis MCP Server
AI agents use pm_vote to create or update resources in Basis MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Basis MCP Server environment.
Why pm_vote is rated Medium
An AI agent can call pm_vote faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Basis MCP Server by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs pm_vote safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Basis MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For pm_vote, this is the rule to start with:
pm_vote 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Basis MCP Server, apply this rule, and every pm_vote call is checked against it from then on.

Register the Basis MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for pm_vote: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Basis MCP Server. Nothing to install.
pm_vote is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the pm_vote rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for pm_vote. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
pm_vote is provided by the Basis MCP Server MCP server (launch-on-basis/mcp-ts). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
