@brandsystem/mcp Execute Risk 3/5

AI agents invoke brand_compile to trigger processes or run actions in Brandcode MCP. 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.

brand_compile 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 brand_compile tool do? +

Generate DTCG design tokens, design-synthesis.json, DESIGN.md, brand runtime, and interaction policy from extracted brand data. Transforms core-identity.yaml into tokens.json, brand-runtime.json (single-document brand contract for AI agents), and interaction-policy.json (enforceable rules). When Session 2+ data exists, also generates visual-identity-manifest.md and system-integration.md. Use after brand_extract_web, brand_extract_site, brand_extract_visual, or brand_extract_figma. Returns token counts, clarification items, and file list.. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Brandcode MCP MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on brand_compile? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for brand_compile. 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_compile? +

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

Can I rate-limit brand_compile? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the brand_compile 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_compile completely? +

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

brand_compile 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.
