piqrypt_search_events

Search audit trail using fast SQLite index. Filter by event type, date range, or agent ID.

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

AI agents call piqrypt_search_events to retrieve information from Piqrypt 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 piqrypt_search_events 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.

What does the piqrypt_search_events tool do? +

Search audit trail using fast SQLite index. Filter by event type, date range, or agent ID.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Piqrypt MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on piqrypt_search_events? +

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

What risk level is piqrypt_search_events? +

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

Can I rate-limit piqrypt_search_events? +

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

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

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