glazyr/glazyr-viz Write Risk 2/5

AI agents use browser_set_fish_count to create or modify resources in Glazyr Viz. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call browser_set_fish_count repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. Intercept's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Glazyr Viz.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

What does the browser_set_fish_count tool do? +

Controls the hardware load by setting the number of active WebGL fish in the Aquarium simulation.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Glazyr Viz MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on browser_set_fish_count? +

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

What risk level is browser_set_fish_count? +

browser_set_fish_count is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit browser_set_fish_count? +

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

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

browser_set_fish_count is provided by the Glazyr Viz MCP server (glazyr/glazyr-viz). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
