What ics_generate does on ScorpTech x402 API
AI agents use ics_generate to create or update resources in ScorpTech x402 API, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your ScorpTech x402 API environment.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
events | array | Yes | Events (max 200): summary, start, end | durationMinutes, allDay, timezone, description, location, url, uid, rrule, exdates, alarms (minutes before), organizer { |
method | string | — | REQUEST for meeting invitations (needs organizer) |
timezone | string | — | IANA time zone for events without their own (e.g. Europe/Berlin) |
calendarName | string | — |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why ics_generate is rated Medium
An AI agent can call ics_generate faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in ScorpTech x402 API by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs ics_generate safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and ScorpTech x402 API, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For ics_generate, this is the rule to start with:
ics_generate stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect ScorpTech x402 API, apply this rule, and every ics_generate call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about ics_generate
Generate a standards-compliant iCalendar (.ics, RFC 5545) file from JSON events — ready for Google Calendar, Outlook and Apple Calendar invites or "add to calendar" links. Time zones with a generated VTIMEZONE (DST rules from the IANA database), all-day and multi-day events, recurrence (RRULE validated, EXDATE), reminders (VALARM), organizer / attendees with RSVP, location, URL, geo, categories and status. Proper escaping and 75-octet line folding; deterministic UIDs. Returns the .ics text and a data: URI. Price: $0.002 USDC per successful call (x402, Solana). Same tool over HTTPS: POST https://scorptech.it.com/api/x402/v1/ics-generate. It is categorised as a Write tool in the ScorpTech x402 API MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
ics_generate accepts 4 parameters: events, method, timezone, calendarName. Required: events. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the ScorpTech x402 API MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for ics_generate: 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 ScorpTech x402 API. Nothing to install.
ics_generate is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the ics_generate 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for ics_generate. 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.
ics_generate is provided by the ScorpTech x402 API MCP server (https://scorptech.it.com/api/x402/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
