Why wpcs_generate_report needs a policy

The tool generates and potentially writes report data to files (a reversible operation). While it performs analysis and checks (which are Read operations), the primary exposed capability is report generation with optional file output, making Write the most accurate category. Writing report files is reversible and non-destructive.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'outputs a graded report' and 'optionally writes to a file', indicating data creation and file writing capabilities.

How to control wpcs_generate_report

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

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

wpcs_generate_report 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.
