WHAT IT DOES

What bend_bars does on Torch-to-Crown

Why bend_bars is rated Medium

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs bend_bars safely

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

bend_bars Rate-limited

bend_bars 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.
