MOST DANGEROUS TOOLS

High Risk

The most dangerous CodeSeeker-MCP tools

Execute · High interactive_search This tool launches an interactive terminal UI session, which constitutes executing an external process/application. Write · High bulk_replace This tool performs search-and-replace operations that modify file contents. Write · High code_refactor Refactoring modifies source code by renaming or restructuring elements across files. Write · High search_and_replace This tool modifies file contents by replacing matched patterns with new text, which is a reversible write operation.

4 of CodeSeeker-MCP's 12 tools can modify, destroy, or commit something on every call — and an agent calls them with no built-in limits.

POLICY

How to control CodeSeeker-MCP

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and CodeSeeker-MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. These are the rules we recommend:

Rate limit write operations

{
  "code_refactor": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "code_refactor_per_hour",
        "window": "hour",
        "max": 30,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

Cap read operations

{
  "basic_search": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "basic_search_per_minute",
        "window": "minute",
        "max": 60,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

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

Add these rules — paste them, or build them visually. Tune the limits to your setup.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
