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

One command. Full control.

Intercept sits between your agent and Google Workspace Docs (gws CLI). 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 @gws mcp -s docs
Scans every tool. Generates a policy. Starts enforcing.
Works with Claude Code · Cursor · Claude Desktop · Windsurf · any MCP client
Rate limit write operations
docs_documents_batchUpdate:
  rules:
    - rate_limit: 30/hour

Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

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

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

How do I prevent bulk modifications through Google Workspace Docs (gws CLI)? +

The Google Workspace Docs (gws CLI) server has 2 write tools including docs_documents_batchUpdate, docs_documents_create. 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 Google Workspace Docs (gws CLI) MCP server expose? +

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

How do I add Intercept to my Google Workspace Docs (gws CLI) setup? +

One line change. Instead of running the Google Workspace Docs (gws CLI) server directly, prefix it with Intercept: intercept -c google-workspace-docs.yaml -- npx -y @@gws mcp -s docs. Download a pre-built policy from policylayer.com/policies/google-workspace-docs and adjust the limits to match your use case.
