AI agents call scout.subscribe_lead_feed to retrieve information from Scout 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 scout.subscribe_lead_feed 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.

Subscribe to a continuous feed of new seller-signal leads matching a filter. As leads are created and approved, Scout POSTs each one to your webhook URL up to your monthly_lead_budget. Ideal for AI agents that act on leads automatically. Currently in beta — emails Spencer with your subscription request; webhook delivery starts after manual provisioning.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Scout MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
