What active_learning.promote does on Visionmcp
AI agents use active_learning.promote to create or update resources in Visionmcp, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Visionmcp environment.
Why active_learning.promote is rated Medium
This tool activates/promotes a model checkpoint into production or commercial use. It modifies system state by changing which model version is active. While not purely destructive or financial in itself, promoting a checkpoint to commercial eligibility can have significant downstream consequences — it changes production behavior for all users of the system.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs active_learning.promote safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Visionmcp, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For active_learning.promote, this is the rule to start with:
active_learning.promote 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Visionmcp, apply this rule, and every active_learning.promote call is checked against it from then on.
