What add-mood does on Habitify

AI agents use add-mood to create or update resources in Habitify — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Habitify environment.

Medium Risk

Why add-mood needs a policy

This tool creates new mood data entries. It is categorized as Write rather than Read (it modifies state) or Destructive (mood entries can be deleted or corrected). The severity is medium because an AI agent could spam mood entries or add misleading emotional data, but the impact is limited to the user's personal mood log and reversible.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'add-mood' with description 'Add mood entry'. The 'add' verb combined with 'mood entry' indicates creation of new data.

How to control add-mood

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "add-mood": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "add-mood_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

add-mood 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 Habitify — 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.
