// MCP TOOL REFERENCE

adas_deploy_skill

Deploy a single skill into an existing solution.

Single-target operation

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

// WHEN AI AGENTS USE THIS TOOL

AI agents invoke adas_deploy_skill to trigger processes or run actions in ADAS. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.

// WHY ENFORCE A POLICY ON ADAS_DEPLOY_SKILL

adas_deploy_skill can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. Intercept enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.

// RECOMMENDED POLICY

Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

  adas_deploy_skill:

// FAQ

What does the adas_deploy_skill tool do? +

Deploy a single skill into an existing solution.. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the ADAS MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on adas_deploy_skill? +

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

What risk level is adas_deploy_skill? +

adas_deploy_skill is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit adas_deploy_skill? +

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

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

adas_deploy_skill is provided by the ADAS MCP server (ateam-ai/ateam). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
