RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs execute_security_patch safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Nitrostack, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For execute_security_patch, this is the rule to start with:

execute_security_patch Rate-limited

execute_security_patch 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.
