Why convert_text_to_kebabcase needs a policy

This tool modifies text data by converting it to a specific case format (kebab-case). While the transformation is reversible in principle, it constitutes a data modification operation, making it Write category. Severity is low because the impact is limited to string formatting with no access to sensitive systems, no irreversible destruction, and no external side effects.

From the tool's definition 'Convert text to kebab-case' - transforms input text by replacing spaces/underscores with hyphens and lowercasing, modifying the string format.

How to control convert_text_to_kebabcase

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "convert_text_to_kebabcase": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "convert_text_to_kebabcase_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

convert_text_to_kebabcase 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.
