Part of the Ui MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

@forgespace/ui-mcp Execute Risk 4/5

AI agents invoke forge_gate to trigger processes or run actions in Ui. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.

forge_gate can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. Intercept enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.

Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

What does the forge_gate tool do? +

Run a quality gate check on a project. Returns pass/fail status, score, grade, and blocking violations. Configurable threshold and governance phase.. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Ui MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on forge_gate? +

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

What risk level is forge_gate? +

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

Can I rate-limit forge_gate? +

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

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

forge_gate is provided by the Ui MCP server (@forgespace/ui-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
