WHAT IT DOES

What grounding_protocol does on Delx MCP Server

AI agents invoke grounding_protocol to trigger actions in Delx MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`intensity`	string	—	Optional protocol intensity
`loop_type`	string	—	Optional loop profile
`session_id`	string	Yes	Your active session ID
`duration_seconds`	integer	—	Optional protocol duration (20-300s)

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why grounding_protocol is rated High

grounding_protocol triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once. It starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs grounding_protocol safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Delx MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For grounding_protocol, this is the rule to start with:

grounding_protocol Rate-limited

grounding_protocol stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

FAQ

Questions about grounding_protocol

What does the grounding_protocol tool do? +

Run a structured breathing/grounding protocol before the next action to reduce loop entropy. Free Delx Protocol tool. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Delx MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

What parameters does grounding_protocol accept? +

grounding_protocol accepts 4 parameters: intensity, loop_type, session_id, duration_seconds. Required: session_id. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on grounding_protocol? +

Register the Delx MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for grounding_protocol: 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 Delx MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is grounding_protocol? +

grounding_protocol is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit grounding_protocol? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the grounding_protocol 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.

How do I block grounding_protocol completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for grounding_protocol. 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 grounding_protocol? +

grounding_protocol is provided by the Delx MCP Server MCP server (delx-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
