Why set_order_note needs a policy

This tool creates or modifies order metadata (notes and preferences) reversibly—the changes can be edited or removed before order placement. It does not execute payment (Financial), delete data (Destructive), or trigger external operations beyond recording user preferences (Execute).

From the tool's definition Tool description states it sets order notes and service preferences, which are metadata modifications to an order before placement. The tool modifies order state (notes/preferences) without executing the final transaction or deleting data.

How to control set_order_note

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Food402, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for set_order_note:

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

set_order_note 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 Food402 — 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.
