14 tools. 7 can modify or destroy data without limits.
2 destructive tools with no built-in limits. Policy required.
Last updated:
Destructive tools (delete_resource, explain) permanently delete resources. There is no undo. An agent calling these in a retry loop causes irreversible damage.
Write operations (create_resource, create_template, generate_infrastructure_code) modify state. Without rate limits, an agent can make hundreds of changes in seconds — faster than any human can review or revert.
Execute tools (run_checkov) trigger processes with side effects. Builds, notifications, workflows — all fired without throttling.
delete_resource:
rules:
- action: deny Destructive tools should never be available to autonomous agents without human approval.
create_resource:
rules:
- rate_limit: 30/hour Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.
check_environment_variables:
rules:
- rate_limit: 60/minute Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.
Yes. The AWS Cloud Control API (CCAPI) MCP Server server exposes 2 destructive tools including delete_resource, explain. These permanently remove resources with no undo. Intercept blocks destructive tools by default so they never reach the upstream server.
The AWS Cloud Control API (CCAPI) MCP Server server has 4 write tools including create_resource, create_template, generate_infrastructure_code. Set rate limits in your policy file -- for example, rate_limit: 10/hour prevents an agent from making more than 10 modifications per hour. Intercept enforces this at the transport layer.
14 tools across 4 categories: Destructive, Execute, Read, Write. 7 are read-only. 7 can modify, create, or delete data.
One line change. Instead of running the AWS Cloud Control API (CCAPI) MCP Server server directly, prefix it with Intercept: intercept -c aws-cloud-control-api-ccapi-mcp-server.yaml -- npx -y @awslabs.ccapi-mcp-server. Download a pre-built policy from policylayer.com/policies/aws-cloud-control-api-ccapi-mcp-server and adjust the limits to match your use case.
