23 tools. 6 can modify or destroy data without limits.
2 destructive tools with no built-in limits. Policy required.
Last updated:
Destructive tools (oci_compute_instance_action, oci_os_delete_bucket) permanently delete resources. There is no undo. An agent calling these in a retry loop causes irreversible damage.
Write operations (oci_os_create_bucket, oci_vcn_create) modify state. Without rate limits, an agent can make hundreds of changes in seconds — faster than any human can review or revert.
Execute tools (oci_adb_start, oci_adb_stop) trigger processes with side effects. Builds, notifications, workflows — all fired without throttling.
Intercept sits between your agent and Oracle Cloud. 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 @oracle-cloud-mcp oci_compute_instance_action:
rules:
- action: deny Destructive tools should never be available to autonomous agents without human approval.
oci_os_create_bucket:
rules:
- rate_limit: 30/hour Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.
oci_adb_get:
rules:
- rate_limit: 60/minute Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.
Yes. The Oracle Cloud server exposes 2 destructive tools including oci_compute_instance_action, oci_os_delete_bucket. These permanently remove resources with no undo. Intercept blocks destructive tools by default so they never reach the upstream server.
The Oracle Cloud server has 2 write tools including oci_os_create_bucket, oci_vcn_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.
23 tools across 4 categories: Destructive, Execute, Read, Write. 17 are read-only. 6 can modify, create, or delete data.
One line change. Instead of running the Oracle Cloud server directly, prefix it with Intercept: intercept -c io-github-expertvagabond-oracle-cloud.yaml -- npx -y @oracle-cloud-mcp. Download a pre-built policy from policylayer.com/policies/io-github-expertvagabond-oracle-cloud 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.
