Why test_tool needs a policy

The tool description provides no actionable information about what the tool does. It cannot be reliably classified into Read, Write, Execute, Destructive, or Financial categories. Confidence is very low due to the lack of descriptive detail.

From the tool's definition The description 'A simple test tool' is uninformative and does not indicate any specific operation or side effect.

POLICY

How to control test_tool

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "test_tool": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "test_tool_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 60,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

test_tool gets a rate cap, and everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

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