Low Risk

summarize_my_agent

Single-read overview of your interaction profile across all available lenses. Fetches profile, friction summary, and coverage in one call. Use this for a quick status check instead of calling each lens individually.

Part of the ACR — Agent Composition Records MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

AI agents call summarize_my_agent to retrieve information from ACR — Agent Composition Records without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.

Even though summarize_my_agent only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.

Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

How do I enforce a policy on summarize_my_agent? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for summarize_my_agent. 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.

summarize_my_agent is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit summarize_my_agent? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the summarize_my_agent 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.

How do I block summarize_my_agent completely? +

Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for summarize_my_agent. 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.
