AI agents use make_move to create or modify resources in Pokémon Information Server. 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 make_move 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 Pokémon Information Server.

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

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

Other write tools across the catalogue. The same approach applies to each: rate-limit and validate the arguments.

What does the make_move tool do? +

Make a move in the current battle. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Pokémon Information Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on make_move? +

Register the Pokémon Information Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for make_move: 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 Pokémon Information Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is make_move? +

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

Can I rate-limit make_move? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the make_move 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 make_move completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for make_move. 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 make_move? +

make_move is provided by the Pokémon Information Server MCP server (MetehanGZL/pokemcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Pokémon Information Server tool call.
