200 tools. 66 can modify or destroy data without limits.
31 destructive tools with no built-in limits. Policy required.
Last updated:
Destructive tools (TRELLO_ADD_LISTS_MOVE_ALL_CARDS_BY_ID_LIST, TRELLO_ADD_NOTIFICATIONS_ALL_READ, TRELLO_CONVERT_CHECKLIST_ITEM_TO_CARD) permanently delete resources. There is no undo. An agent calling these in a retry loop causes irreversible damage.
Write operations (TRELLO_ADD_BOARDS, TRELLO_ADD_BOARDS_CALENDAR_KEY_GENERATE_BY_ID_BOARD, TRELLO_ADD_BOARDS_CHECKLISTS_BY_ID_BOARD) 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 Trello. Every tool call checked against your policy before it executes — so your agent can do its job without breaking things.

TRELLO_ADD_BOARDS:
rules:
- rate_limit: 30/hour Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

- rate_limit: 60/minute Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.
Yes. The Trello server exposes 31 destructive tools including TRELLO_ADD_LISTS_MOVE_ALL_CARDS_BY_ID_LIST, TRELLO_ADD_NOTIFICATIONS_ALL_READ, TRELLO_CONVERT_CHECKLIST_ITEM_TO_CARD. These permanently remove resources with no undo. Intercept blocks destructive tools by default so they never reach the upstream server.
The Trello server has 35 write tools including TRELLO_ADD_BOARDS, TRELLO_ADD_BOARDS_CALENDAR_KEY_GENERATE_BY_ID_BOARD, TRELLO_ADD_BOARDS_CHECKLISTS_BY_ID_BOARD. 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.
200 tools across 3 categories: Destructive, Read, Write. 134 are read-only. 66 can modify, create, or delete data.
One line change. Instead of running the Trello server directly, prefix it with Intercept: intercept -c trello.yaml -- npx -y @mcp-server-trello. Download a pre-built policy from policylayer.com/policies/trello 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.
