Why push_text_message needs a policy

This tool sends (pushes) a text message to a LINE user, which is a Write operation—it creates new data (the message) in the LINE messaging system. It is reversible in the sense that messages can theoretically be recalled or deleted by the service. The severity is medium because unsolicited or spam messages could impact users, but no financial, destructive, or code-execution harm is involved.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Push a simple text message to a user via LINE' which is a send/delivery operation that creates a new message record.

How to control push_text_message

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "push_text_message": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "push_text_message_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

push_text_message 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.

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