AI agents call get_provision to retrieve information from South Korea Law without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.
Even though get_provision only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.
Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

Retrieve the full text of a specific provision (article) from a Korean statute, or all provisions if no article is specified. Korean provisions use article notation: 제1조, 제15조. Pass law_identifier as either the internal ID (e.g., "act-16930"), the Korean title (e.g., "개인정보 보호법"), or the English title (e.g., "Personal Information Protection Act"). Returns: document ID, title (Korean + English), status, article number, chapter, full text (Korean + English where available), and citation URL to law.go.kr. Korean articles use 제N조 format. Paragraphs use ①②③ circled numbers. Items use 1. 2. 3. WARNING: Omitting article returns ALL provisions (capped at 200) for the statute.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the South Korea Law MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for get_provision. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the South Korea Law MCP server.
get_provision 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 get_provision 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.
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for get_provision. 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.
get_provision is provided by the South Korea Law MCP server (@ansvar/south-korea-law-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
