Update Edge Config Schema

How to control update_edge_config_schema ↓

AI agents use update_edge_config_schema to create or update resources in Vercel MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Vercel MCP Server environment.

Medium Risk

This tool creates or modifies Edge Config schema definitions in a Vercel project. Schema updates are reversible changes to configuration metadata (not data deletion or irreversible destruction).

From the tool's definition Tool name 'update_edge_config_schema' and description 'Update Edge Config Schema' indicate modification of configuration schema, which is a reversible write operation to infrastructure settings.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access update_edge_config_schema gives an agent:

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "update_edge_config_schema": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "update_edge_config_schema_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

update_edge_config_schema 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.

  1. Create a free account and register Vercel MCP Server — 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.
