AI agents use create_diagram to create or modify resources in Planform MCP Server. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.
Without a policy, an AI agent could call create_diagram repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Planform MCP Server.
Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_diagram gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Create a new diagram and set it as the current one. Uses your session—just pass title and type. After this you can add nodes and links without specifying a diagram.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Planform MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Planform MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_diagram: 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 Planform MCP Server. Nothing to install.
create_diagram is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_diagram 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 create_diagram. 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.
create_diagram is provided by the Planform MCP Server MCP server (@shirbarzur/planform-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
