"Use this tool to execute a specific method of another tool with the provided parameters based on get-tools tool response. You need to specify the tool name, method name, and any required parameters for that method."
Single-target operation
Part of the VeyraX MCP MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents invoke tool_call to trigger processes or run actions in VeyraX 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.
tool_call 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.

"Use this tool to execute a specific method of another tool with the provided parameters based on get-tools tool response. You need to specify the tool name, method name, and any required parameters for that method." . It is categorised as a Execute tool in the VeyraX MCP MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for tool_call. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the VeyraX MCP MCP server.
tool_call is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the tool_call 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 tool_call. 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.
tool_call is provided by the VeyraX MCP MCP server (clarenous/veyrax-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
