What bazel_ios_log_capture_stop does on XcodeBazelMCP
AI agents invoke bazel_ios_log_capture_stop to trigger actions in XcodeBazelMCP. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
Why bazel_ios_log_capture_stop is rated High
This tool terminates an active process (log capture session) and retrieves its output. Stopping a running process is an external operation with side effects beyond simple data retrieval. It falls under Execute as it triggers an external operation (stopping a capture process), though it also returns data. Severity is medium since misuse could prematurely terminate a needed capture session, losing log data.

The rule that runs bazel_ios_log_capture_stop safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and XcodeBazelMCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For bazel_ios_log_capture_stop, this is the rule to start with:
bazel_ios_log_capture_stop stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect XcodeBazelMCP, apply this rule, and every bazel_ios_log_capture_stop call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about bazel_ios_log_capture_stop
Stop a running log capture and return captured logs. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the XcodeBazelMCP MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the XcodeBazel MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for bazel_ios_log_capture_stop: 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 XcodeBazelMCP. Nothing to install.
bazel_ios_log_capture_stop is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the bazel_ios_log_capture_stop 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for bazel_ios_log_capture_stop. 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.
bazel_ios_log_capture_stop is provided by the XcodeBazel MCP server (xcodebazelmcp/xcodebazelmcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
