AI agents use plan_build to create or modify resources in Space0. 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 plan_build 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 Space0.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access plan_build gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so plan_build only ever does what you allow.

What does the plan_build tool do? +

Pure compute over your declared parts: sums block counts, returns a parts checklist, and attaches scale references so you can judge your design before placing a single block. You declare the parts; this computes block counts + scale references. It does not invent geometry. Workflow: call plan_build first to get target_blocks + scale_refs, then call set_goal(description, target_blocks, footprint, height) to persist the plan — set_goal is where plan metadata is stored. Returns { target_blocks, parts_checklist, scale_refs, overlap_warning? }. goal_id is accepted but is a no-op in this tool; persistence happens via set_goal.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Space0 MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on plan_build? +

Register the Space0 MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for plan_build: 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 Space0. Nothing to install.

What risk level is plan_build? +

plan_build is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit plan_build? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the plan_build 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.

How do I block plan_build completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for plan_build. 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.

What MCP server provides plan_build? +

plan_build is provided by the Space0 MCP server (https://mcp.0.space/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Space0 tool call.
