RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs bar_widget_move safely

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

bar_widget_move Rate-limited

bar_widget_move 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.
