edict_deploy

Deploy an Edict program to a target. Runs the full pipeline (validate → check → compile) then packages for the specified target. Targets: 'wasm_binary' (returns WASM + metadata), 'cloudflare' (generates Worker bundle).

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

edict-lang Execute Risk 3/5

AI agents invoke edict_deploy to trigger processes or run actions in Edict Lang. 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.

edict_deploy 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 edict_deploy tool do? +

Deploy an Edict program to a target. Runs the full pipeline (validate → check → compile) then packages for the specified target. Targets: 'wasm_binary' (returns WASM + metadata), 'cloudflare' (generates Worker bundle).. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Edict Lang MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on edict_deploy? +

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

What risk level is edict_deploy? +

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

Can I rate-limit edict_deploy? +

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

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

edict_deploy is provided by the Edict Lang MCP server (edict-lang). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
