Why create_html_page needs a policy

The tool creates new content (HTML page) which is a reversible write operation. Without a description, confidence is reduced. The tool appears designed to generate virtual tour content within the Street View MCP context. Medium severity: misuse could generate misleading or malicious HTML pages, but the impact is limited to the user's local filesystem and the action is reversible.

From the tool's definition Tool named 'create_html_page' with empty description. Based on naming alone, this creates (generates/writes) an HTML page file.

How to control create_html_page

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Street View MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create_html_page:

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

create_html_page 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.
