Why generate_image needs a policy

This tool creates new image content using AI models. It is a Write operation as it produces new artifacts (images) stored somewhere, but does not delete existing data, execute arbitrary code, or involve financial transactions. Misuse could incur API costs or generate inappropriate content, warranting medium severity.

How to control generate_image

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

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

generate_image 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.
