Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs rename_mogrt_controller safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Ae, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For rename_mogrt_controller, this is the rule to start with:
rename_mogrt_controller 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Ae, apply this rule, and every rename_mogrt_controller call is checked against it from then on.
