What valve_maintenance_start does on Tolpo
AI agents invoke valve_maintenance_start 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.
Why valve_maintenance_start is rated High
valve_maintenance_start 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.

The rule that runs valve_maintenance_start 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 valve_maintenance_start, this is the rule to start with:
valve_maintenance_start 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Tolpo, apply this rule, and every valve_maintenance_start call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about valve_maintenance_start
Start a KE100 mechanical cycle. Poll valve_settings for calibration or descaling status. 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.
Register the Tolpo MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for valve_maintenance_start: 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.
valve_maintenance_start is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the valve_maintenance_start 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for valve_maintenance_start. 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.
valve_maintenance_start 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.
