AI agents use mlz_publish_check to create or modify resources in MissingLinkz. 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 mlz_publish_check 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 MissingLinkz.

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 mlz_publish_check only ever does what you allow.

What does the mlz_publish_check tool do? +

Full pre-publish checklist. Builds a UTM-tagged link and runs all validations:. It is categorised as a Write tool in the MissingLinkz MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on mlz_publish_check? +

Register the MissingLinkz MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for mlz_publish_check: 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 MissingLinkz. Nothing to install.

What risk level is mlz_publish_check? +

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

Can I rate-limit mlz_publish_check? +

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

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

mlz_publish_check is provided by the MissingLinkz MCP server (missinglinkz). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every MissingLinkz tool call.
