The rule that runs rotate_credentials safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Ludus FastMCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For rotate_credentials, this is the rule to start with:
rotate_credentials 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 Ludus FastMCP, apply this rule, and every rotate_credentials call is checked against it from then on.
