build_pattern_library · Loenn MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What build_pattern_library does on Loenn

AI agents invoke build_pattern_library to trigger actions in Loenn. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why build_pattern_library needs a policy

build_pattern_library triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once — it starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.
