45 tools. 23 can modify or destroy data without limits.
3 destructive tools with no built-in limits. Policy required.

Financial operations (transfer_task) can move real money. An agent caught in a loop could drain accounts before anyone notices.
Destructive tools (adjust_time, delete_task) permanently delete resources. There is no undo. An agent calling these in a retry loop causes irreversible damage.
Write operations (add_checklist_item, complete_task, create_agenda_event) modify state. Without rate limits, an agent can make hundreds of changes in seconds — faster than any human can review or revert.
Execute tools (start_task) trigger processes with side effects. Builds, notifications, workflows — all fired without throttling.
Intercept sits between your agent and Clareo. Every tool call checked against your policy before it executes — so your agent can do its job without breaking things.
npx -y @policylayer/intercept scan -- npx -y @clareo/clareo-mcp transfer_task:
rules:
- action: deny Financial tools should be explicitly enabled per use case, not open by default.
adjust_time:
rules:
- action: deny Destructive tools should never be available to autonomous agents without human approval.
add_checklist_item:
rules:
- rate_limit: 30/hour Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.
get_agency_report:
rules:
- rate_limit: 60/minute Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.
Yes. The Clareo server exposes 1 financial tools including transfer_task. Without a policy, an autonomous agent can call these with no spend caps, no rate limits, and no approval flow. Intercept lets you block financial tools by default or set per-tool rate limits.
Yes. The Clareo server exposes 2 destructive tools including adjust_time, delete_task. These permanently remove resources with no undo. Intercept blocks destructive tools by default so they never reach the upstream server.
The Clareo server has 19 write tools including add_checklist_item, complete_task, create_agenda_event. 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.
45 tools across 5 categories: Destructive, Execute, Financial, Read, Write. 22 are read-only. 23 can modify, create, or delete data.
One line change. Instead of running the Clareo server directly, prefix it with Intercept: intercept -c clareo.yaml -- npx -y @@clareo/clareo-mcp. Download a pre-built policy from policylayer.com/policies/clareo and adjust the limits to match your use case.
Starter policies available for each. Same risk classification, same one-command setup.
Set budgets, approvals, and hard limits across MCP servers.
