The rule that runs invite_glp_user safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and API-Central, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For invite_glp_user, this is the rule to start with:
invite_glp_user 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect API-Central, apply this rule, and every invite_glp_user call is checked against it from then on.
