WHAT IT DOES

What generate-image does on TypeScript MCP Server Boilerplate

AI agents invoke generate-image to trigger actions in TypeScript MCP Server Boilerplate. 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.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why generate-image needs a policy

This tool triggers an external AI model (FLUX.1-schnell) to generate images, which constitutes executing an external operation with side effects. It is not purely a read operation and may incur API costs or resource usage. It does not directly move money, delete data, or write to a persistent store, so Execute is the most appropriate category.

From the tool's definition 텍스트 프롬프트를 입력받아 AI 이미지를 생성합니다 (generates AI images from text prompts using FLUX.1-schnell model)

Verdict

generate-image Rate-limited

generate-image 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.
