WHEN AI AGENTS USE THIS TOOL

AI agents call NOTE to perform operations in Apollo GraphQL. While the risk category is not fully classified, applying a rate limit gives you visibility into how often the tool is called and prevents unexpected bursts of activity from autonomous agents.

WHY ENFORCE A POLICY ON NOTE

Applying a policy to NOTE gives you an audit trail of every call an AI agent makes. Even for low-risk tools, visibility into agent behaviour helps you debug issues, optimise workflows, and maintain compliance with your organisation's security requirements.

RECOMMENDED POLICY

Apply a rate limit to control usage and monitor for unexpected behaviour.

apollo-graphql.yaml 
tools:
  NOTE:
    rules:
      - action: allow
        rate_limit:
          max: 60
          window: 60

How do I enforce a policy on NOTE?

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

What risk level is NOTE?

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

Can I rate-limit NOTE?
