How to control pilot_geolocation ↓

AI agents call pilot_geolocation to permanently remove resources in Pilot — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Critical Risk

An AI agent that decides to call pilot_geolocation doesn't hesitate, doesn't double-check, and doesn't stop at one. Whatever it removes from Pilot is gone — there is no undo for destructive operations.

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

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "pilot_geolocation"
  ]
}

pilot_geolocation disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

  1. Create a free account and register Pilot — 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.

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

What risk level is pilot_geolocation? +

pilot_geolocation is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.

Can I rate-limit pilot_geolocation? +

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

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