storybloq_init

Initialize a new .story/ project in the current directory

How to control storybloq_init ↓

AI agents use storybloq_init to create or update resources in Storybloq — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Storybloq environment.

Medium Risk

This tool creates a new project structure (.story/ directory) in the current working directory. It is a Write operation because it creates new data structures reversibly—the initialized project can be modified or deleted. While initialization touches the filesystem, it does not execute arbitrary code or delete existing data irreversibly.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'storybloq_init' and description 'Initialize a new .story/ project in the current directory' indicates creation of a new project directory structure and metadata files.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access storybloq_init gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Storybloq, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for storybloq_init:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "storybloq_init": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "storybloq_init_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

storybloq_init 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.

  1. Create a free account and register Storybloq — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

How do I enforce a policy on storybloq_init? +

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

What risk level is storybloq_init? +

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

Can I rate-limit storybloq_init? +

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

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

storybloq_init is provided by the Storybloq MCP server (storybloq/storybloq). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Storybloq tool call.
