WHAT IT DOES

What portfolio.rank does on Visionmcp

AI agents call portfolio.rank to retrieve information from Visionmcp without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why portfolio.rank is rated Low

The tool appears to rank or sort already-evaluated hypotheses, which is a read/query operation. The phrase 'preferring an editable semantic target' suggests it may influence selection but the core action is ranking/ordering rather than modifying data. No evidence of writes, execution, or destructive actions. Confidence is moderate because the description is sparse and 'editable semantic target' is ambiguous.

From the tool's definition 'Rank evaluated hypotheses' — ranking/ordering existing data without modification

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs portfolio.rank 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 portfolio.rank, this is the rule to start with:

portfolio.rank Allowed

portfolio.rank is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "portfolio.rank": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Visionmcp, apply this rule, and every portfolio.rank call is checked against it from then on.
