Single-target operation

Part of the Amazon Data Processing MCP Server MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

AI agents use manage_aws_glue_usage_profiles to create or modify resources in Amazon Data Processing MCP Server. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call manage_aws_glue_usage_profiles repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. Intercept's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Amazon Data Processing MCP Server.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

What does the manage_aws_glue_usage_profiles tool do? +

Manage AWS Glue Usage Profiles for resource allocation and cost management. This tool allows you to create, retrieve, update, and delete AWS Glue Usage Profiles, which define resource allocation and cost management settings for Glue jobs and interactive sessions. ## Requirements - The server must be run with the `--allow-write` flag for create-profile, delete-profile, and update-profile operations - Appropriate AWS permissions for Glue Usage Profile operations ## Operations - **create-profile**: Create a new usage profile with specified resource allocations - **delete-profile**: Delete an existing usage profile - **get-profile**: Retrieve detailed information about a specific usage profile - **update-profile**: Update an existing usage profile's configuration ## Example ```json { "operation": "create-profile", "profile_name": "my-standard-profile", "description": "Standard resource allocation for ETL jobs", "configuration": { "JobConfiguration": { "numberOfWorkers": { "DefaultValue": "10", "MinValue": "1", "MaxValue": "10" }, "workerType": { "DefaultValue": "G.2X", "AllowedValues": [ "G.2X", "G.4X", "G.8X" ] }, } } ``` Args: ctx: MCP context operation: Operation to perform profile_name: Name of the usage profile description: Description of the usage profile configuration: Configuration object specifying job and session values tags: Tags to apply to the usage profile Returns: Union of response types specific to the operation performed. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Amazon Data Processing MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on manage_aws_glue_usage_profiles? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for manage_aws_glue_usage_profiles. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Amazon Data Processing MCP Server MCP server.

What risk level is manage_aws_glue_usage_profiles? +

manage_aws_glue_usage_profiles is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit manage_aws_glue_usage_profiles? +

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

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

manage_aws_glue_usage_profiles is provided by the Amazon Data Processing MCP Server MCP server (awslabs.aws-dataprocessing-mcp-server). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
