WHAT IT DOES

What ics_parse does on ScorpTech x402 API

AI agents invoke ics_parse to trigger actions in ScorpTech x402 API. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`to`	string	—	Window end (default from + 30 days)
`tz`	string	—	Output IANA zone (default the calendar's zone or UTC)
`ics`	string	—	iCalendar text
`url`	string	—	URL of an .ics feed (or use ics)
`from`	string	—	Window start (expands recurring events); ISO 8601
`limit`	integer	—
`descriptions`	boolean	—	Include event descriptions (truncated)

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why ics_parse is rated High

ics_parse triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once. It starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs ics_parse 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_parse, this is the rule to start with:

ics_parse Rate-limited

ics_parse stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

FAQ

Questions about ics_parse

What does the ics_parse tool do? +

Parse an iCalendar (.ics) feed from a URL (SSRF-safe; Google / Outlook / Apple calendar exports) or inline text into JSON: calendar name and zone, events with start / end in any IANA zone, all-day flag, location, organizer, attendee count, status and recurrence rule in English. Give a from / to window to expand recurring events (RRULE, EXDATE, RDATE, RECURRENCE-ID overrides) into concrete occurrences. Windows time-zone names are mapped to IANA. Price: $0.003 USDC per successful call (x402, Solana). Same tool over HTTPS: POST https://scorptech.it.com/api/x402/v1/ics-parse. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the ScorpTech x402 API MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

What parameters does ics_parse accept? +

ics_parse accepts 7 parameters: to, tz, ics, url, from, limit, descriptions. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on ics_parse? +

Register the ScorpTech x402 API MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for ics_parse: 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.

What risk level is ics_parse? +

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

Can I rate-limit ics_parse? +

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

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

ics_parse 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.
