AI agents use upload_file to create or modify resources in Wjx. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call upload_file repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Wjx.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so upload_file only ever does what you allow.

What does the upload_file tool do? +

上传图片文件用于问卷。支持 png/jpg/gif/jpeg/bmp/webp 格式,文件以 Base64 编码传入,最大约 4MB。. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Wjx MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on upload_file? +

Register the Wjx MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for upload_file: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Wjx. Nothing to install.

What risk level is upload_file? +

upload_file is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit upload_file? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the upload_file rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block upload_file completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for upload_file. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides upload_file? +

upload_file is provided by the Wjx MCP server (wjx-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Wjx tool call.
