WHAT IT DOES

What auto_fix_code does on Multi Agent Orchestrator MCP

AI agents invoke auto_fix_code to trigger actions in Multi Agent Orchestrator MCP. 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 auto_fix_code needs a policy

This tool automatically modifies code, which constitutes both writing and executing changes. Since it autonomously alters source code (potentially across multiple files) without human review of each change, and operates within a system described as having 'self-healing capabilities' for 'autonomous software engineering workflows', the primary risk is Execute-level: the tool runs automated logic that determines and…

From the tool's definition 'Automatically fix code issues using self-healing capabilities' — modifies code files autonomously

Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Multi Agent Orchestrator MCP. Nothing to install.

What risk level is auto_fix_code? +

auto_fix_code is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit auto_fix_code? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the auto_fix_code 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 auto_fix_code completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for auto_fix_code. 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 auto_fix_code? +

auto_fix_code is provided by the Multi Agent Orchestrator MCP server (ssdeanx/orchestrator-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
