What gateway.submit_feedback does on PMCP

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

Medium Risk

Why gateway.submit_feedback needs a policy

This tool creates a GitHub issue (or prepares one for submission), which is a reversible write operation — issues can be closed or deleted. The blast radius is medium since a misused agent could spam GitHub issues or expose sensitive information in public issue content, but no irreversible destruction or financial action is involved.

How to control gateway.submit_feedback

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

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

gateway.submit_feedback 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 PMCP — 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.
