WHAT IT DOES

What vacuum_spot does on Tolpo

AI agents invoke vacuum_spot to trigger actions in Tolpo. 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.

RISK

Why vacuum_spot is rated High

vacuum_spot triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once. It starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs vacuum_spot safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Tolpo, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For vacuum_spot, this is the rule to start with:

vacuum_spot Rate-limited

vacuum_spot 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.

FAQ

Questions about vacuum_spot

What does the vacuum_spot tool do? +

Start spot cleaning around the robot's current position. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Tolpo MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on vacuum_spot? +

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

What risk level is vacuum_spot? +

vacuum_spot is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit vacuum_spot? +

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

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

vacuum_spot is provided by the Tolpo MCP server (signerless/tolpo). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
