Interactively assign object IDs with collision checking
AI agents use assign-ids to create or update resources in AL Object ID Ninja MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your AL Object ID Ninja MCP Server environment.
This tool performs creation/modification of object ID assignments, which is a reversible write operation. It does not execute arbitrary code or delete data (Destructive), does not move money (Financial), and does not execute external operations with side effects dependent on arguments (Execute).
From the tool's definition Tool name 'assign-ids' and description 'Interactively assign object IDs with collision checking' indicate the tool creates or modifies object ID assignments.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access assign-ids gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and AL Object ID Ninja MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for assign-ids:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"assign-ids": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "assign-ids_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}assign-ids 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.
Free to start. No card required.
Interactively assign object IDs with collision checking. It is categorised as a Write tool in the AL Object ID Ninja MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the AL Object ID Ninja MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for assign-ids: 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 AL Object ID Ninja MCP Server. Nothing to install.
assign-ids is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the assign-ids 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for assign-ids. 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.
assign-ids is provided by the AL Object ID Ninja MCP Server MCP server (sshadows/al-objid-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from AL Object ID Ninja MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
