AI agents call agentbond_evaluate_intent_policy to retrieve information from AgentBond 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 agentbond_evaluate_intent_policy 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.

Evaluate intent policy for an action. Checks if an IntentRecord exists when requireReasoning is true. Records the result in the audit log with intentRef linkage based on auditLevel.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the AgentBond MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the AgentBond MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for agentbond_evaluate_intent_policy: 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 AgentBond. Nothing to install.
agentbond_evaluate_intent_policy is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the agentbond_evaluate_intent_policy 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for agentbond_evaluate_intent_policy. 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.
agentbond_evaluate_intent_policy is provided by the AgentBond MCP server (agentbond/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
