Check if content is on-brand — fast pass/fail gate for brand compliance before publishing. Use when asked 'is this on-brand?', 'brand compliance gate', 'can I publish this?', or in CI/CD pipelines.

Accepts raw HTML/template content (content)

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

AI agents call brand_check_compliance to retrieve information from Brandcode MCP 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 brand_check_compliance 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.

What does the brand_check_compliance tool do? +

Check if content is on-brand — fast pass/fail gate for brand compliance before publishing. Use when asked 'is this on-brand?', 'brand compliance gate', 'can I publish this?', or in CI/CD pipelines. Verifies on-palette colors, brand fonts, anti-pattern rules, and never-say words. Returns PASS or FAIL with specific failures. Enable strict mode for soft anti-patterns. For detailed 0-100 scoring, use brand_audit_content. NOT for HTML/CSS rule checking (use brand_preflight).. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Brandcode MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on brand_check_compliance? +

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

What risk level is brand_check_compliance? +

brand_check_compliance is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit brand_check_compliance? +

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

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

brand_check_compliance 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.
