Why remove_tag_from_all_articles needs a policy

This tool modifies data by removing a tag, which is a reversible write operation (the tag could theoretically be re-added). However, the blast radius is high because it operates on ALL articles that have the tag at once, making a misuse potentially affect a large number of articles simultaneously. It does not permanently delete articles or data, so it falls under Write rather than Destructive.

From the tool's definition Removes a tag from all articles that have it

How to control remove_tag_from_all_articles

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

policy.json

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

remove_tag_from_all_articles 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.
