13 tools. 6 can modify or destroy data without limits.
6 write tools that can modify data. Rate limits recommended.
Last updated:
Write operations (install_app, install_catalog_app, manage_domain) modify state. Without rate limits, an agent can make hundreds of changes in seconds — faster than any human can review or revert.
Execute tools (deploy_project) trigger processes with side effects. Builds, notifications, workflows — all fired without throttling.
install_app:
rules:
- rate_limit: 30/hour Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.
get_app_env:
rules:
- rate_limit: 60/minute Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.
The Ilumin server has 5 write tools including install_app, install_catalog_app, manage_domain. 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.
13 tools across 3 categories: Execute, Read, Write. 7 are read-only. 6 can modify, create, or delete data.
One line change. Instead of running the Ilumin server directly, prefix it with Intercept: intercept -c ilumin.yaml -- npx -y @ilumin-mcp. Download a pre-built policy from policylayer.com/policies/ilumin and adjust the limits to match your use case.
