WHAT IT DOES

What drive_reset does on Commodore 64 Ultimate Computer MCP Server

AI agents invoke drive_reset to trigger actions in Commodore 64 Ultimate Computer MCP Server. 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.

THE RISK

Why drive_reset needs a policy

Resetting a drive triggers an external hardware operation on the C64 device. It is not a simple data read or write, but an execution of a hardware control command. While it may not permanently destroy data, it can interrupt ongoing operations and cause loss of unsaved state, making it more than a simple write but not fully destructive.

POLICY

How to control drive_reset

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Commodore 64 Ultimate Computer MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for drive_reset:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "drive_reset": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "drive_reset_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

drive_reset 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.

FAQ

Questions about drive_reset

What does the drive_reset tool do? +

Reset a specific drive. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Commodore 64 Ultimate Computer MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on drive_reset? +

Register the Commodore 64 Ultimate Computer MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for drive_reset: 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 Commodore 64 Ultimate Computer MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is drive_reset? +

drive_reset is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit drive_reset? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the drive_reset 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 drive_reset completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for drive_reset. 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 drive_reset? +

drive_reset is provided by the Commodore 64 Ultimate Computer MCP Server MCP server (xphileby/c64u-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
