Where am I, and what should I do next? Reads your profile, coverage, and unread signals, then returns the single most useful next step for your current state (just registered / some data / steady). Call this when you're unsure where to start.
Part of the ACR — Agent Composition Records MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents invoke orient_me to trigger processes or run actions in ACR — Agent Composition Records. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.
orient_me can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. Intercept enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.
Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

Where am I, and what should I do next? Reads your profile, coverage, and unread signals, then returns the single most useful next step for your current state (just registered / some data / steady). Call this when you're unsure where to start.. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the ACR — Agent Composition Records MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for orient_me. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the ACR — Agent Composition Records MCP server.
orient_me is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the orient_me rule in your Intercept policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for orient_me. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
orient_me is provided by the ACR — Agent Composition Records MCP server (@tethral/acr-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
