How to control insert_hwp_table ↓

AI agents use insert_hwp_table to create or update resources in Hwp — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Hwp environment.

Medium Risk

This tool creates and adds new table data to a document, which is a reversible modification. It does not delete or permanently destroy data (ruling out Destructive), does not execute arbitrary code or commands (ruling out Execute), involves no financial transactions, and is not a read-only operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'insert_hwp_table' and description 'Insert a real OWPML table at the end of an .hwpx body' indicates creation of new structured content within a document.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access insert_hwp_table gives an agent:

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "insert_hwp_table": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "insert_hwp_table_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

insert_hwp_table 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.

  1. Create a free account and register Hwp — 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.
