generate_liquid_chart

Generate a liquid chart, which visually displays percentage or progress metrics. Suitable for showing proportions, completion rates, and similar scenarios.

How to control generate_liquid_chart ↓

AI agents use generate_liquid_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.

Medium Risk

This tool creates or modifies visualizations by generating chart data and rendering configurations. It is a Write-category tool because it produces new chart objects/code that represent data visualizations.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'generate_liquid_chart' and description states it generates a chart visualization. The verb 'generate' indicates creation of new data/content (chart visualization output).

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access generate_liquid_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_liquid_chart:

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

generate_liquid_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.

  1. Create a free account and register Vchart — 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.

How do I enforce a policy on generate_liquid_chart? +

Register the Vchart MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for generate_liquid_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.

What risk level is generate_liquid_chart? +

generate_liquid_chart is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit generate_liquid_chart? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the generate_liquid_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.

How do I block generate_liquid_chart completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for generate_liquid_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.

What MCP server provides generate_liquid_chart? +

generate_liquid_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.

Enforce policy on every Vchart tool call.
