Why translate_document needs a policy

Based on the server description, this server provides document translation services. A 'translate_document' tool most likely takes a document as input and produces a translated version, which is a Write operation (creating new translated content). However, the empty description significantly lowers confidence.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'translate_document'; description is empty and uninformative.

How to control translate_document

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

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

translate_document 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.

  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
