What brc_batch_quotes does on Red by Big Red Cloud
AI agents call brc_batch_quotes to retrieve information from Red by Big Red Cloud without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
items | array | Yes | Batch items to process. Maximum 20 items per request. |
priceBasis | string | — | Applies to every sales invoice/credit note item in this batch. Required when Gross Price Entry is enabled. Use `gross` when unit prices are VAT-inclusive/gross. |
routeToken | string | Yes | Opaque routeToken from brc_route_request for this action workflow. Required for transactional tools. Routing permission only — does not replace preview-before-p |
companyName | string | Yes | Company context name, for example YOUR-COMPANY-NAME. |
confirmWrite | boolean | — | Must be true only after a plain-English preview before posting has been shown in the current conversation and the user explicitly confirmed posting (for example |
connectionRef | string | — | Opaque Red connection reference returned by brc_confirm_company_connection. Pass this exact value on every later tool call when the MCP client rotates session i |
confirmCrAnalysisCategory | boolean | — | Applies to every sales document item in this batch. Set true only after the user confirms a CR (customer) sales analysis account code is intentional for these p |
confirmCounterpartyExplicit | boolean | — | Must be true only after the user explicitly named or confirmed the customer, supplier, or other counterparty in the current conversation. Never set true because |

Why brc_batch_quotes is rated Low
Even though brc_batch_quotes only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs brc_batch_quotes safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Red by Big Red Cloud, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For brc_batch_quotes, this is the rule to start with:
brc_batch_quotes is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Red by Big Red Cloud, apply this rule, and every brc_batch_quotes call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about brc_batch_quotes
Processes a batch of quotes. Maximum 20 items per batch request. Requires routeToken from brc_route_request for the matching action workflow. Call brc_route_request first with the user's complete original action request. Retain the returned routeToken through lookup, preview, and confirmation, and pass the same token on the final permitted transactional tool call. Never invent a placeholder token. A routeToken is not permission to post — preview-before-posting and confirmWrite/confirmDelete still apply. Also requires confirmCounterpartyExplicit: true once the user has explicitly named or confirmed the customer/supplier in the current conversation. Do not reuse a counterparty from an earlier preview without that confirmation. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Red by Big Red Cloud MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
brc_batch_quotes accepts 8 parameters: items, priceBasis, routeToken, companyName, confirmWrite, connectionRef, confirmCrAnalysisCategory, confirmCounterpartyExplicit. Required: items, routeToken, companyName. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Red by Big Red Cloud MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for brc_batch_quotes: 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 Red by Big Red Cloud. Nothing to install.
brc_batch_quotes 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 brc_batch_quotes 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 brc_batch_quotes. 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.
brc_batch_quotes is provided by the Red by Big Red Cloud MCP server (https://red.bigredcloud.com/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
