Part of the Contentful GraphQL Server MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents call graphql_get_content_type_schema to retrieve information from Contentful GraphQL 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 graphql_get_content_type_schema 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.

Agents calling read-class tools like graphql_get_content_type_schema have been implicated in these attack patterns. Read the full case and prevention policy for each:
Other tools in the Read risk category across the catalogue. The same policy patterns (rate-limit, allow) apply to each.
IMPORTANT: Use this tool AFTER using graphql_list_content_types to get a detailed schema for a specific content type. This tool provides all fields, their types, and relationships for a content type. You should ALWAYS use this tool to understand the structure of a content type before creating a query for it. The space ID and CDA token are automatically retrieved from environment variables.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Contentful GraphQL Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for graphql_get_content_type_schema. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Contentful GraphQL Server MCP server.
graphql_get_content_type_schema 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 graphql_get_content_type_schema 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 graphql_get_content_type_schema. 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.
graphql_get_content_type_schema is provided by the Contentful GraphQL Server MCP server (ivo-toby/contentful-mcp-graphql). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
