Why connect_inventory_level needs a policy

This tool creates or modifies an association between an inventory item and a location, enabling a new tracking relationship. While it does not delete data (Destructive) or execute arbitrary code (Execute), it does reversibly create/modify inventory configuration state.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Connect[s] an inventory item to a location (enable tracking at that location)' and is meant to 'activate inventory tracking' — operations that modify the state of inventory tracking configurations.

How to control connect_inventory_level

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Sapo, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for connect_inventory_level:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "connect_inventory_level": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "connect_inventory_level_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

connect_inventory_level stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Sapo — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
