Why admin_add_book needs a policy

This tool creates (writes) new book records in the university library system. It is reversible (books can be removed/updated), so it falls under Write rather than Destructive. The 'admin' prefix indicates privileged access, elevating severity to medium given the potential for misuse by an AI agent to populate the library with incorrect or malicious content, though the impact is confined to library metadata.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'admin_add_book' and description '[Admin] Add a library book' indicate the tool creates new records in the library system. The 'add' operation is a write action that creates data.

How to control admin_add_book

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

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

admin_add_book 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.
