AI agents use create_feature to create or modify resources in Schematic. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.
Without a policy, an AI agent could call create_feature repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Schematic.
Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_feature gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:
Other write tools across the catalogue. The same approach applies to each: rate-limit and validate the arguments.
Create a new feature flag. Boolean features are simple on/off switches - the most commonly used type, ideal for enabling/disabling functionality and basic plan differentiation. Event-based features are metered against user events and track usage that typically increases over time (e.g., API calls, reports generated, database queries). Trait-based features are based on information reported to Schematic and can track usage that fluctuates up and down (e.g., user seats, projects, devices). Trait-based features must be created in the web app. Optionally entitle the feature to a plan in the same call.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Schematic MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Schematic MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_feature: 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 Schematic. Nothing to install.
create_feature is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_feature 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 create_feature. 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.
create_feature is provided by the Schematic MCP server (@schematichq/schematic-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
