Find bilateral tax treaty provisions between two countries. Searches for convention articles on dividends, interest, royalties, capital gains, permanent establishment, and other treaty provisions. Includes MLI (Multilateral Instrument) positions and reservations when available.
Part of the Ifg MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents call get_tax_treaty to retrieve information from Ifg 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_tax_treaty 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.

Find bilateral tax treaty provisions between two countries. Searches for convention articles on dividends, interest, royalties, capital gains, permanent establishment, and other treaty provisions. Includes MLI (Multilateral Instrument) positions and reservations when available.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Ifg MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for get_tax_treaty. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Ifg MCP server.
get_tax_treaty 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_tax_treaty 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_tax_treaty. 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_tax_treaty is provided by the Ifg MCP server (ifg-mcp-server). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
