The rule that runs sap_decode_transaction safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Sap, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For sap_decode_transaction, this is the rule to start with:
sap_decode_transaction is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Sap, apply this rule, and every sap_decode_transaction call is checked against it from then on.

sap_decode_transaction 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 sap_decode_transaction 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.
