Write operations (comment_need, vote_need) modify state. Without rate limits, an agent can make hundreds of changes in seconds — faster than any human can review or revert.
Intercept sits between your agent and Report Needs. 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 @eren-solutions/report-needs comment_need:
rules:
- rate_limit: 30/hour Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.
get_categories:
rules:
- rate_limit: 60/minute Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.
The Report Needs server has 2 write tools including comment_need, vote_need. 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.
7 tools across 2 categories: Read, Write. 5 are read-only. 2 can modify, create, or delete data.
One line change. Instead of running the Report Needs server directly, prefix it with Intercept: intercept -c eren-solutions-report-needs.yaml -- npx -y @eren-solutions/report-needs. Download a pre-built policy from policylayer.com/policies/eren-solutions-report-needs and adjust the limits to match your use case.
Set budgets, approvals, and hard limits across MCP servers.
