The rule that runs use_read_magic 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 use_read_magic, this is the rule to start with:
use_read_magic is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Torch-to-Crown, apply this rule, and every use_read_magic call is checked against it from then on.
