WHAT IT DOES

What comfy_generate_simple does on ComfyUI MCP Server

AI agents invoke comfy_generate_simple to trigger actions in ComfyUI MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

THE RISK

Why comfy_generate_simple needs a policy

This tool triggers image generation execution on a local ComfyUI installation. It runs an external AI pipeline/process with side effects (CPU/GPU computation, file system writes of output images). It's not purely a write (data creation) because it executes a computational workflow.

From the tool's definition Quick image generation using pre-configured workflow templates... Ideal for common use cases without managing workflow JSON.

POLICY

How to control comfy_generate_simple

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "comfy_generate_simple": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "comfy_generate_simple_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

comfy_generate_simple stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

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