Generate a funnel chart to visually represent the sequential reduction or transformation of values across categorical stages. This visualization is ideal for illustrating processes such as sales pipelines, conversion rates, or any workflow where data diminishes through progressive phases.
AI agents use generate_funnel_chart to create or update resources in Vchart — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Vchart environment.
This tool creates (generates) a chart visualization, which is a reversible data creation action. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data, or move money. The output is a structured chart artifact that can be modified or regenerated.
From the tool's definition The tool generates and creates chart visualizations ('Generate a funnel chart'). The description emphasizes creation of a new visualization artifact ('generate', 'visually represent').
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access generate_funnel_chart gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Vchart, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for generate_funnel_chart:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"generate_funnel_chart": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "generate_funnel_chart_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}generate_funnel_chart 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.

Generate a funnel chart to visually represent the sequential reduction or transformation of values across categorical stages. This visualization is ideal for illustrating processes such as sales pipelines, conversion rates, or any workflow where data diminishes through progressive phases. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Vchart MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Vchart MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for generate_funnel_chart: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Vchart. Nothing to install.
generate_funnel_chart is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the generate_funnel_chart rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for generate_funnel_chart. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
generate_funnel_chart is provided by the Vchart MCP server (visactor/vchart-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
