The rule that runs analyze_attack_chain safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Kali Security MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For analyze_attack_chain, this is the rule to start with:
analyze_attack_chain 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 Kali Security MCP, apply this rule, and every analyze_attack_chain call is checked against it from then on.
