AI agents call intentions_ask_month to retrieve information from Intentions MCP Server 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 intentions_ask_month 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.

Call when the user asks at month granularity or wants the best month from a multi-month window ("how is next month", "best month in 2026 to X", "下个月适合吗"). Use for trip-month selection, launch months, content-calendar planning, quarterly/annual decisions. Modes: single month, compare up to 5 months, or scan up to 12 months (returns top 5). Returns month score, element breakdown, adverse alerts. For day precision near the 4th–6th of a month use intentions_ask_day; for hour precision use intentions_ask_hour.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Intentions MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Intentions MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for intentions_ask_month: 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 Intentions MCP Server. Nothing to install.
intentions_ask_month 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 intentions_ask_month 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 intentions_ask_month. 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.
intentions_ask_month is provided by the Intentions MCP Server MCP server (https://mcp.intentions.me/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
