AI agents use dossier_cors to create or modify resources in Drwho Me developer tools. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call dossier_cors repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Drwho Me developer tools.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access dossier_cors gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so dossier_cors only ever does what you allow.

What does the dossier_cors tool do? +

Core dossier check: Send a CORS preflight OPTIONS request to https://<domain>/ and return the access-control-* response headers. Use to verify CORS policy for a specific origin-method pair, or to check whether a domain allows cross-origin requests; provide origin and method to simulate a precise preflight, or omit to use defaults (origin: https://domainposture.com, method: GET). Single OPTIONS request via fetch, 5 s timeout. Returns a CheckResult: on success, {status:"ok", headers:{access-control-allow-origin,...}}; on failure, {status:"error", reason}.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Drwho Me developer tools MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on dossier_cors? +

Register the Drwho Me developer tools MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for dossier_cors: 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 Drwho Me developer tools. Nothing to install.

What risk level is dossier_cors? +

dossier_cors is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit dossier_cors? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the dossier_cors 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.

How do I block dossier_cors completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for dossier_cors. 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.

What MCP server provides dossier_cors? +

dossier_cors is provided by the Drwho Me developer tools MCP server (https://drwho.me/mcp/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Drwho Me developer tools tool call.
