Why adt_create_transport needs a policy

From the tool's definition Tool is named 'adt_create_transport' and description states 'Create a new transport request. Returns the new TR number.' The verb 'Create' and explicit statement 'Create a new transport request' indicate this tool writes/creates a new entity in the SAP system.

How to control adt_create_transport

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "adt_create_transport": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "adt_create_transport_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

adt_create_transport 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.
