Write operations (generate_cost_report) modify state. Without rate limits, an agent can make hundreds of changes in seconds — faster than any human can review or revert.

Rate limit write operations
generate_cost_report:
  rules:
    - rate_limit: 30/hour

Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

Cap read operations
analyze_cdk_project:
  rules:
    - rate_limit: 60/minute

Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.

How do I prevent bulk modifications through AWS Pricing MCP Server? +

The AWS Pricing MCP Server server has 1 write tools including generate_cost_report. 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.

How many tools does the AWS Pricing MCP Server MCP server expose? +

9 tools across 2 categories: Read, Write. 8 are read-only. 1 can modify, create, or delete data.

How do I add Intercept to my AWS Pricing MCP Server setup? +

One line change. Instead of running the AWS Pricing MCP Server server directly, prefix it with Intercept: intercept -c aws-pricing-mcp-server.yaml -- npx -y @awslabs.aws-pricing-mcp-server. Download a pre-built policy from policylayer.com/policies/aws-pricing-mcp-server and adjust the limits to match your use case.
