What delimit_digest does on Delimit
AI agents call delimit_digest to retrieve information from Delimit without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why delimit_digest is rated Low
The tool name implies a read-only operation that processes or summarizes information without side effects. However, confidence is moderate due to empty description and lack of explicit API documentation. If this tool actually executes operations or modifies state, classification should be revisited.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'delimit_digest' suggests summarization or consumption of data (digest = summary/abstract). No description provided. Context from sibling tools (check, status, dashboard, audit) suggests monitoring/information retrieval functions.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs delimit_digest safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Delimit, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For delimit_digest, this is the rule to start with:
delimit_digest is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Delimit, apply this rule, and every delimit_digest call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about delimit_digest

Register the Delimit MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delimit_digest: 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 Delimit. Nothing to install.
delimit_digest is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the delimit_digest 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 delimit_digest. 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.
delimit_digest is provided by the Delimit MCP server (delimit-cli). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
