A command tool to control the decomposition-contraction mechanism and automatic termination of Atom of Thoughts. Use this tool to access advanced features of AoT: 1. Decomposition (decompose): Decompose a specified atom into smaller sub-atoms 2. Complete decomposition (complete_decomposition)...
Accepts freeform code/query input (command)
Part of the Atom of Thoughts MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents invoke atomcommands to trigger processes or run actions in Atom of Thoughts. 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.
atomcommands 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.

atomcommands is one of the high-risk operations in Atom of Thoughts. For the full severity-focused view — only the high-risk tools with their recommended policies — see the breakdown for this server, or browse all high-risk tools across every MCP server.
A command tool to control the decomposition-contraction mechanism and automatic termination of Atom of Thoughts. Use this tool to access advanced features of AoT: 1. Decomposition (decompose): Decompose a specified atom into smaller sub-atoms 2. Complete decomposition (complete_decomposition): Complete an ongoing decomposition process 3. Check termination status (termination_status): Check the termination status of the current AoT process 4. Get best conclusion (best_conclusion): Get the verified conclusion with the highest confidence 5. Change settings (set_max_depth): Change the maximum depth limit Command descriptions: - command: Command to execute (decompose, complete_decomposition, termination_status, best_conclusion, set_max_depth) - atomId: Atom ID to use with the command (only required for decompose command) - decompositionId: ID of the decomposition process (only required for complete_decomposition command) - maxDepth: Maximum depth value to set (only required for set_max_depth command). It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Atom of Thoughts MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for atomcommands. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Atom of Thoughts MCP server.
atomcommands is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the atomcommands 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 atomcommands. 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.
atomcommands is provided by the Atom of Thoughts MCP server (kbsooo/mcp_atom_of_thoughts). 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.
