@ansvar/belgian-law-mcp Execute Risk 4/5

AI agents invoke build_legal_stance to trigger processes or run actions in Belgian Law. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.

build_legal_stance can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. Intercept enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.

Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

What does the build_legal_stance tool do? +

Build a comprehensive set of citations for a legal question by searching across all Belgian statutes simultaneously. Returns aggregated results from multiple relevant provisions, useful for legal research on a topic. Use this for broad legal questions like "What are the penalties for data breaches?" rather than looking up a specific known provision. Results include statute context and are ranked by relevance.. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Belgian Law MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on build_legal_stance? +

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

What risk level is build_legal_stance? +

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

Can I rate-limit build_legal_stance? +

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

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

build_legal_stance is provided by the Belgian Law MCP server (@ansvar/belgian-law-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
