socheli_generate · Socheli MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What socheli_generate does on Socheli

AI agents invoke socheli_generate to trigger actions in Socheli. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why socheli_generate needs a policy

This tool triggers an external operation (dispatching a render job) across a device fleet. It initiates a compute/rendering process on external infrastructure, which qualifies as Execute. The blast radius is high because dispatching jobs to an entire device fleet could consume significant resources, cause unintended rendering operations, or interfere with fleet operations if misused.

From the tool's definition "Dispatch a new render job to the device fleet from an idea/seed"

socheli_generate Rate-limited

socheli_generate stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
