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

AI agents invoke StartAHOReadSetImportJob to trigger processes or run actions in AWS HealthOmics MCP Server. 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.

StartAHOReadSetImportJob 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.

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

What does the StartAHOReadSetImportJob tool do? +

Start a read set import job to import genomic files from S3 into a sequence store. Args: ctx: MCP context for error reporting sequence_store_id: The ID of the sequence store role_arn: IAM role ARN for the import job sources: JSON list of import sources tags: Tags as a JSON string or dict aws_profile: Optional AWS profile name override aws_region: Optional AWS region override Returns: Dictionary containing the import job information. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the AWS HealthOmics MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on StartAHOReadSetImportJob? +

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

What risk level is StartAHOReadSetImportJob? +

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

Can I rate-limit StartAHOReadSetImportJob? +

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

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

StartAHOReadSetImportJob is provided by the AWS HealthOmics MCP Server MCP server (awslabs.aws-healthomics-mcp-server). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
