Part of the Graph Aave MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents call get_governance_proposals to retrieve information from Graph Aave 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 get_governance_proposals 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.

Use this when the user asks about AAVE governance — 'Show me recent AAVE governance proposals', 'What proposals are currently active?', 'What is the status of AAVE proposal #X?', 'Show me governance voting activity'. Queries the AAVE Governance V3 subgraph on Ethereum. Returns: proposal ID, creator, access level (1=short executor/2=long executor), current state, voting duration (seconds), for/against votes, title, and payload info. Proposal states: Created=0, Active=1, Queued=2, Executed=3, Failed=4, Cancelled=5, Expired=6.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Graph Aave MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for get_governance_proposals. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Graph Aave MCP server.
get_governance_proposals 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 get_governance_proposals 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.
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for get_governance_proposals. 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.
get_governance_proposals is provided by the Graph Aave MCP server (graph-aave-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Open source. One binary. Zero dependencies.
