What gateway_fix does on Force Fabric MCP Server

AI agents invoke gateway_fix to trigger actions in Force Fabric MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

Why gateway_fix needs a policy

This tool actively applies fixes to gateway and connection configurations, triggering external operations that modify system state. Gateways and connections are critical infrastructure components; misuse could disrupt connectivity across many dependent services.

How to control gateway_fix

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "gateway_fix": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "gateway_fix_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

gateway_fix stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Force Fabric MCP Server — 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.
