POLICY

How to control resolve_jade_article

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "resolve_jade_article": {}
  }
}

resolve_jade_article is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

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