AI agents invoke agda_compile to trigger processes or run actions in Agda. 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.

agda_compile can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. PolicyLayer 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.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so agda_compile only ever does what you allow.

What does the agda_compile tool do? +

Compile a module through Agda's Cmd_compile command using a selected backend.. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Agda MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on agda_compile? +

Register the Agda MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for agda_compile: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Agda. Nothing to install.

What risk level is agda_compile? +

agda_compile is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit agda_compile? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the agda_compile rule in your PolicyLayer 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 agda_compile completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for agda_compile. 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.

What MCP server provides agda_compile? +

agda_compile is provided by the Agda MCP server (agda-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Agda tool call.
