RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs wavexis_backends safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Wavexis, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For wavexis_backends, this is the rule to start with:

wavexis_backends Allowed

wavexis_backends 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": {
    "wavexis_backends": {}
  }
}

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

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