How similar is this route to another?
AI agents call checkMerge to retrieve information from Intervals Icu Api without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
id | string | Yes | |
other_id | number | Yes | |
route_id | number | Yes |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
This tool performs a comparison analysis between routes to measure similarity. It is purely informational—it reads data about existing routes and computes a similarity metric, with no side effects on data or system state. This aligns clearly with the Read category (retrieves or queries data; no side effects).
From the tool's definition The tool description 'How similar is this route to another?' indicates a comparison/similarity check operation that retrieves and analyzes existing data without modifying, deleting, or executing external operations.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
How similar is this route to another?. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Intervals Icu Api MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
checkMerge accepts 3 parameters: id, other_id, route_id. Required: id, other_id, route_id. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Intervals Icu Api MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for checkMerge: 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 Intervals Icu Api. Nothing to install.
checkMerge 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 checkMerge 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 checkMerge. 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.
checkMerge is provided by the Intervals Icu Api MCP server (intervals-icu-api-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
