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

// RECOMMENDED RULES
Rate limit write operations
install_command:
  rules:
    - rate_limit: 30/hour

Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

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

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

// FAQ
How do I prevent bulk modifications through Depscope? +

The Depscope server has 4 write tools including install_command, package_exists, pin_safe. 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 Depscope MCP server expose? +

22 tools across 2 categories: Read, Write. 18 are read-only. 4 can modify, create, or delete data.

How do I add Intercept to my Depscope setup? +

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

Let agents act without letting them run wild.
