1 write tool that can modify data. Rate limits recommended.
Last updated:
Write operations (connect_account) 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 Ponch. 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 @ponch-mcp-server connect_account:
rules:
- rate_limit: 30/hour Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.
The Ponch server has 1 write tools including connect_account. 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.
1 tools across 1 categories: Write. 0 are read-only. 1 can modify, create, or delete data.
One line change. Instead of running the Ponch server directly, prefix it with Intercept: intercept -c ponch.yaml -- npx -y @ponch-mcp-server. Download a pre-built policy from policylayer.com/policies/ponch and adjust the limits to match your use case.
Set budgets, approvals, and hard limits across MCP servers.
