Part of the AWS Serverless MCP Server MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents call secure_esm_msk_policy to retrieve information from AWS Serverless 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 secure_esm_msk_policy 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.

Generate security-approved IAM policy for MSK Kafka ESM. This tool uses pre-approved policy templates and only performs parameter substitution. It does NOT generate policy structure or permissions via LLM. Key Security Features: - Deterministic policy generation (same inputs = same output) - Security-approved template structure - Comprehensive parameter validation Args: ctx: MCP context for logging region: AWS region where MSK cluster is located account: 12-digit AWS account ID cluster_name: Name of the MSK cluster cluster_uuid: UUID of the MSK cluster function_name: Lambda function name for processing events topic_pattern: Kafka topic access pattern consumer_group_pattern: Consumer group access pattern partition: AWS partition Returns: Dict containing the complete, security-approved IAM policy document. It is categorised as a Read tool in the AWS Serverless 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 secure_esm_msk_policy. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the AWS Serverless MCP Server MCP server.
secure_esm_msk_policy 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 secure_esm_msk_policy 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 secure_esm_msk_policy. 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.
secure_esm_msk_policy is provided by the AWS Serverless MCP Server MCP server (awslabs.aws-serverless-mcp-server). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
