Medium Risk

post_text_message

Post a text message to a Google Chat space.

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

AI agents use post_text_message to create or modify resources in Google Chat MCP Server. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call post_text_message repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. Intercept's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Google Chat MCP Server.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

What does the post_text_message tool do? +

Post a text message to a Google Chat space.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Google Chat MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on post_text_message? +

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

What risk level is post_text_message? +

post_text_message is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit post_text_message? +

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

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

post_text_message is provided by the Google Chat MCP Server MCP server (KaranThink41/gchat_post_text_message). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
