Get external/dashboard setup steps for a pattern. Use when user needs help with manual configuration steps like enabling OAuth providers, creating API keys, configuring webhooks, etc.
AI agents call nyko_setup to retrieve information from Nyko MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves instructional setup steps and guidance for manual configuration — it reads/fetches documentation or step-by-step instructions. It does not itself perform any configuration, write data, or execute commands; the actual setup actions are performed manually by the user. This is purely an informational retrieval tool.

Register the Nyko MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for nyko_setup: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Nyko MCP Server. Nothing to install.
nyko_setup is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the nyko_setup rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for nyko_setup. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
