Create or update a quiz shell (no questions). Idempotent by slug. Default: hidden, unlimited attempts, grade=10, method=highest. Combine with importar_gift to populate questions, or use publicar_ficha_examen for both in one call.
AI agents use configurar_quiz to create or update resources in Moodle — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Moodle environment.
This tool modifies educational content (quizzes) in a learning management system by creating or updating quiz configurations. It is reversible (quizzes can be deleted or reconfigured) and does not delete data or execute arbitrary code. The blast radius is medium because misconfiguration could affect student assessments and learning experiences, but the operation is non-destructive and idempotent (safe to retry).
From the tool's definition Tool performs creation or updating of quiz shells: 'Create or update a quiz shell' with idempotent behavior by slug. The description explicitly states 'Default: hidden, unlimited attempts, grade=10, method=highest' indicating configuration of quiz parameters.

Combine with importar_gift to populate questions, or use publicar_ficha_examen for both in one call. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Moodle MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Moodle MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for configurar_quiz: 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 Moodle. Nothing to install.
configurar_quiz 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 configurar_quiz 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 configurar_quiz. 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.
configurar_quiz is provided by the Moodle MCP server (marcosnahuel/moodle-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
