What generate_code_example does on Sufetch

AI agents invoke generate_code_example to trigger actions in Sufetch. 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.

High Risk

Why generate_code_example needs a policy

The tool generates and likely executes or outputs runnable TypeScript code. While it may only produce code text without running it, 'generate' for code examples implies producing executable artifacts. If the code is merely returned as a string, it would be Write/Read, but given it's framed as a complete executable example and could trigger downstream execution, Execute is most appropriate.

How to control generate_code_example

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Sufetch, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for generate_code_example:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "generate_code_example": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "generate_code_example_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

generate_code_example 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.

  1. Create a free account and register Sufetch — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

Questions about generate_code_example

What does the generate_code_example tool do? +

Generate a complete TypeScript code example for an endpoint. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Sufetch MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on generate_code_example? +

Register the Sufetch MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for generate_code_example: 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 Sufetch. Nothing to install.

What risk level is generate_code_example? +

generate_code_example is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit generate_code_example? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the generate_code_example 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.

How do I block generate_code_example completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for generate_code_example. 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.

What MCP server provides generate_code_example? +

generate_code_example is provided by the Sufetch MCP server (productdevbook/sufetch). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Sufetch tool call.

Start from Sufetch, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
