Analyze a CDK project to identify AWS services used. This tool dynamically extracts service information from CDK constructs without relying on hardcoded service mappings.
Part of the AWS Pricing MCP Server MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents call analyze_cdk_project to retrieve information from AWS Pricing MCP Server 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 analyze_cdk_project 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.

Analyze a CDK project to identify AWS services used. This tool dynamically extracts service information from CDK constructs without relying on hardcoded service mappings.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the AWS Pricing MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for analyze_cdk_project. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the AWS Pricing MCP Server MCP server.
analyze_cdk_project is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the analyze_cdk_project 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.
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for analyze_cdk_project. 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.
analyze_cdk_project is provided by the AWS Pricing MCP Server MCP server (awslabs.aws-pricing-mcp-server). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
