Low Risk

SAPLint

Check ABAP code quality. Runs abaplint rules locally and/or ATC checks on the SAP system.

Part of the Arc 1 MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

arc-1 Read

AI agents call SAPLint to retrieve information from Arc 1 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 SAPLint 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 SAPLint tool do? +

Check ABAP code quality. Runs abaplint rules locally and/or ATC checks on the SAP system.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Arc 1 MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on SAPLint? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for SAPLint. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Arc 1 MCP server.

What risk level is SAPLint? +

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

Can I rate-limit SAPLint? +

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

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

SAPLint is provided by the Arc 1 MCP server (arc-1). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
