Activate Brandcode Studio connection for saving and pushing brands. Preferred mode: "activate" displays a short code (e.g. BRAND-7K4X) for the user to enter at brandcode.studio/activate — no copy-paste of tokens needed.

Part of the Brandcode MCP MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents may call brand_brandcode_auth to permanently remove or destroy resources in Brandcode MCP. Without a policy, an autonomous agent could delete critical data in a loop with no way to undo the damage. Intercept blocks destructive tools by default and requires explicit human approval before enabling them.
Without a policy, an AI agent could call brand_brandcode_auth in a loop, permanently destroying resources in Brandcode MCP. There is no undo for destructive operations. Intercept blocks this tool by default and only allows it when a human explicitly approves the action.
Destructive tools permanently remove data. Block by default. Only enable with explicit approval workflows.

Activate Brandcode Studio connection for saving and pushing brands. Preferred mode: "activate" displays a short code (e.g. BRAND-7K4X) for the user to enter at brandcode.studio/activate — no copy-paste of tokens needed. Also supports: "status" (check auth), "login" (magic link fallback), "set_key" (manual token), "logout" (clear credentials). Use when the user wants to save their brand to Studio or says "activate", "connect to Brandcode", or "save my brand online". NOT needed for extraction, preview, or brand_check — those work without auth.. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Brandcode MCP MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for brand_brandcode_auth. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Brandcode MCP MCP server.
brand_brandcode_auth is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the brand_brandcode_auth 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 brand_brandcode_auth. 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.
brand_brandcode_auth is provided by the Brandcode MCP MCP server (@brandsystem/mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
