WHAT IT DOES

What refreshPlatforms does on Nitrostack

AI agents invoke refreshPlatforms to trigger actions in Nitrostack. 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.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs refreshPlatforms 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 refreshPlatforms, this is the rule to start with:

refreshPlatforms Rate-limited

refreshPlatforms 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.

          "max": 10,

        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Nitrostack, apply this rule, and every refreshPlatforms call is checked against it from then on.
