@antv/mcp-server-chart Write Risk 2/5

AI agents use generate_scatter_chart to create or modify resources in Chart. 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 generate_scatter_chart 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 Chart.

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

What does the generate_scatter_chart tool do? +

Generate a scatter chart to show the relationship between two variables, helps discover their relationship or trends, such as, the strength of correlation, data distribution patterns.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Chart MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on generate_scatter_chart? +

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

What risk level is generate_scatter_chart? +

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

Can I rate-limit generate_scatter_chart? +

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

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

generate_scatter_chart is provided by the Chart MCP server (@antv/mcp-server-chart). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
