// WHEN AI AGENTS USE THIS TOOL

AI agents invoke inference to trigger processes or run actions in Aaaa Nexus. 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 INFERENCE

inference 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.

// FAQ

What does the inference tool do? +

Run Llama 3.1 8B inference with anti-hallucination guard and error correction. Returns answer with HELIX metadata. $0.015/call.. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Aaaa Nexus MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on inference? +

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

What risk level is inference? +

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

Can I rate-limit inference? +

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

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

inference is provided by the Aaaa Nexus MCP server (atomadictech-ud4n/aaaa-nexus). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
