AI agents use decoder_intelligence to create or modify resources in Heista. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call decoder_intelligence repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Heista.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so decoder_intelligence only ever does what you allow.

What does the decoder_intelligence tool do? +

Browse individual decoded ads from Heista's corpus of real winning Meta/TikTok creative. Takes optional filters: vertical, creative_format, marketing_angle, hook_type, algo_intent, brand (partial name match), and limit (1-10, default 5). Each result returns beat timeline, classification, psychology, runtime performance signals (active days on Meta when available), and a decode id you can pass into generate_adscript with source_type="decode" to write a fresh script on that exact structure. Free, read-only, idempotent — no credits consumed. Use this when the user wants a specific ad as a script template (not an averaged formula), asks "show me winning ads in [vertical]", "what are [brand]'s top ads", or wants to see examples before committing to a generation. Source discovery surface — the response is the spine; for the full bundle with transcripts and director's read, call get_decode by id afterwards. Do NOT use to decode a NEW ad from a URL — use decode_ad (paid). Do NOT use for category-level patterns abstracted across multiple ads — use adformula_intelligence. Do NOT use to write the script itself — use generate_adscript or write directly from the bundle.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Heista MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on decoder_intelligence? +

Register the Heista MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for decoder_intelligence: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Heista. Nothing to install.

What risk level is decoder_intelligence? +

decoder_intelligence is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit decoder_intelligence? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the decoder_intelligence rule in your PolicyLayer 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 decoder_intelligence completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for decoder_intelligence. 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 decoder_intelligence? +

decoder_intelligence is provided by the Heista MCP server (https://www.heista.co/api/mcp/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Heista tool call.
