RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs convert_qasm3_to_qpy_tool safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Qiskit IBM Transpiler MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For convert_qasm3_to_qpy_tool, this is the rule to start with:

convert_qasm3_to_qpy_tool Rate-limited

convert_qasm3_to_qpy_tool stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
