wasm_agent_turn_count
Return the current turn count of a WASM agent. Use when native Task is wrong because turn-limit enforcement and progress tracking must be polled from inside the sandboxed WASM runtime rather than inferred externally.

What wasm_agent_turn_count does on Ruflo
AI agents call wasm_agent_turn_count to retrieve information from Ruflo without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why wasm_agent_turn_count is rated Low
This tool queries and retrieves a counter value from a WASM agent's sandboxed runtime. It is purely informational/observational with no capability to modify, delete, execute commands, or affect external systems. The emphasis on polling from inside the sandbox indicates read-only state inspection.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'turn_count' and description states 'Return the current turn count' - explicitly a retrieval operation with no side effects. Polling internal state from a sandboxed runtime has no mutative impact.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs wasm_agent_turn_count safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Ruflo, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For wasm_agent_turn_count, this is the rule to start with:
wasm_agent_turn_count is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Ruflo, apply this rule, and every wasm_agent_turn_count call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about wasm_agent_turn_count
Return the current turn count of a WASM agent. Use when native Task is wrong because turn-limit enforcement and progress tracking must be polled from inside the sandboxed WASM runtime rather than inferred externally. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Ruflo MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Ruflo MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for wasm_agent_turn_count: 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 Ruflo. Nothing to install.
wasm_agent_turn_count is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the wasm_agent_turn_count 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for wasm_agent_turn_count. 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.
wasm_agent_turn_count is provided by the Ruflo MCP server (ruvnet/ruflo). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
