WHAT IT DOES

What repair.approve does on Visionmcp

AI agents use repair.approve 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.

RISK

Why repair.approve is rated Medium

The tool performs an authorization/approval action on a checkpoint, which is a write-like state change (approving/authorizing something). It explicitly states it does not accept generated geometry, limiting its scope. The action is reversible in nature (approvals can typically be revoked), placing it in Write rather than Execute or Destructive.

From the tool's definition Authorize safe checkpoint evaluation; this does not accept generated geometry.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs repair.approve 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 repair.approve, this is the rule to start with:

repair.approve Rate-limited

repair.approve 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.
