DescribeAlarmShields

获取 CLS 告警屏蔽规则列表。查询指定通知渠道组下的告警屏蔽规则,屏蔽规则用于在特定时间段内屏蔽告警通知,避免维护期间产生大量告警噪音。 应用场景: 1. 查看某个通知渠道组下配置的所有屏蔽规则 2. 查询当前生效的屏蔽规则(按状态过滤) 3. 审计和管理告警屏蔽配置 支持的过滤条件(Filters 参数): - shieldId: 按屏蔽规则 ID 过滤,如 [{Key: 'shieldId', Values: ['shield-xxx']}] - name: 按屏蔽规则名称过滤,如 [{Key: 'name', Values: ['维护屏蔽']}] - status: 按状态过...

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

AI agents call DescribeAlarmShields to retrieve information from Cls 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 DescribeAlarmShields 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 DescribeAlarmShields tool do? +

获取 CLS 告警屏蔽规则列表。查询指定通知渠道组下的告警屏蔽规则,屏蔽规则用于在特定时间段内屏蔽告警通知,避免维护期间产生大量告警噪音。 应用场景: 1. 查看某个通知渠道组下配置的所有屏蔽规则 2. 查询当前生效的屏蔽规则(按状态过滤) 3. 审计和管理告警屏蔽配置 支持的过滤条件(Filters 参数): - shieldId: 按屏蔽规则 ID 过滤,如 [{Key: 'shieldId', Values: ['shield-xxx']}] - name: 按屏蔽规则名称过滤,如 [{Key: 'name', Values: ['维护屏蔽']}] - status: 按状态过滤(enabled=启用,disabled=禁用),如 [{Key: 'status', Values: ['enabled']}]. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Cls MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on DescribeAlarmShields? +

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

What risk level is DescribeAlarmShields? +

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

Can I rate-limit DescribeAlarmShields? +

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

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

DescribeAlarmShields is provided by the Cls MCP server (cls-mcp-server). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
