AI agents call wp_block_types to retrieve information from Claudaborative Editing without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only retrieves schema information about block types (attributes, defaults, nesting constraints). It has no side effects and does not modify any data. It is a reference/lookup tool intended to inform subsequent operations.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access wp_block_types gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Claudaborative Editing, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for wp_block_types:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"wp_block_types": {}
}
} wp_block_types is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
Free to start. No card required.
Look up block type schemas — attributes, defaults, nesting constraints. Use before inserting unfamiliar block types. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Claudaborative Editing MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Claudaborative Editing MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for wp_block_types: 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 Claudaborative Editing. Nothing to install.
wp_block_types 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 wp_block_types 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 wp_block_types. 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.
wp_block_types is provided by the Claudaborative Editing MCP server (pento/claudaborative-editing). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Claudaborative Editing, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
