geocode_batch

- Geocode up to 50 addresses in a single call with parallel execution. Perfect for delivery manifests or client lists.

Part of the Routekit server.

geocode_batch is read-only, but an agent in a loop can still rack up calls and cost. PolicyLayer caps every call before it runs. Live in minutes.

AI agents call geocode_batch to retrieve information from Routekit 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 geocode_batch 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.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so geocode_batch only ever does what you allow.

What does the geocode_batch tool do? +

- Geocode up to 50 addresses in a single call with parallel execution. Perfect for delivery manifests or client lists.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Routekit MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on geocode_batch? +

Register the Routekit MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for geocode_batch: 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 Routekit. Nothing to install.

What risk level is geocode_batch? +

geocode_batch is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit geocode_batch? +

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

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

geocode_batch is provided by the Routekit MCP server (routekit-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Routekit tool call.
