cashpilot-mcp Execute Risk 3/5

AI agents invoke trigger_collection to trigger processes or run actions in Cashpilot. 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.

trigger_collection 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 trigger_collection tool do? +

Trigger an immediate earnings collection across all services. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Cashpilot MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on trigger_collection? +

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

What risk level is trigger_collection? +

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

Can I rate-limit trigger_collection? +

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

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

trigger_collection is provided by the Cashpilot MCP server (cashpilot-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
