PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and PersonalizationMCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for setup_reddit_oauth:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"setup_reddit_oauth": {
"limits": [

"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
