What build_workflow_links does on Ainumbers Mcp Apps
AI agents call build_workflow_links to retrieve information from Ainumbers Mcp Apps without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
chain | string | — | Name of a pre-defined chain (one of 369 — enumerate with find_chain). Mutually exclusive with steps. |
steps | array | — | Ad-hoc ordered step list. Mutually exclusive with chain. |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why build_workflow_links is rated Low
Tool only generates URLs/links with no data modification or execution.
From the tool's definition Constructs deep-links; Zero server-side execution; no side effects
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs build_workflow_links safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Ainumbers Mcp Apps, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For build_workflow_links, this is the rule to start with:
build_workflow_links 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 Ainumbers Mcp Apps, apply this rule, and every build_workflow_links call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about build_workflow_links
Constructs an ordered set of ready-to-use deep-links for a named AINumbers workflow chain or an ad-hoc sequence of tools. Each link points directly to the browser tool; prefill-enabled steps accept #in=<base64url(JSON)> fragments so the tool opens pre-filled. Zero server-side execution -- all tool logic runs deterministically in the user's browser. Use this to hand a user a complete workflow: open step 1, run it, export its Policy Mandate, open step 2 (pre-filled from step 1 outputs), repeat. 369 named chains are available — enumerate them with find_chain. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Ainumbers Mcp Apps MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
build_workflow_links accepts 2 parameters: chain, steps. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Ainumbers Mcp Apps MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for build_workflow_links: 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 Ainumbers Mcp Apps. Nothing to install.
build_workflow_links 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 build_workflow_links 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 build_workflow_links. 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.
build_workflow_links is provided by the Ainumbers Mcp Apps MCP server (postoaklabs/ainumbers-mcp-apps). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
