file_data_dispute

File a dispute against a data artifact. The protocol records disputes — resolution is external.

Part of the Agent Passport System — Cryptographic Identity for AI Agents MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

AI agents call file_data_dispute to retrieve information from Agent Passport System — Cryptographic Identity for AI Agents 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 file_data_dispute 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.

What does the file_data_dispute tool do? +

File a dispute against a data artifact. The protocol records disputes — resolution is external.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Agent Passport System — Cryptographic Identity for AI Agents MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on file_data_dispute? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for file_data_dispute. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Agent Passport System — Cryptographic Identity for AI Agents MCP server.

What risk level is file_data_dispute? +

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

Can I rate-limit file_data_dispute? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the file_data_dispute 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 file_data_dispute completely? +

Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for file_data_dispute. 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 file_data_dispute? +

file_data_dispute is provided by the Agent Passport System — Cryptographic Identity for AI Agents MCP server (agent-passport-system-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
