AI agents call mailerastro_get_started to retrieve information from MailerAstro 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 mailerastro_get_started 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.

Optionally provide your wallet address to check if you already have a balance. This tool is FREE — no payment required. Args: - wallet_address (string, optional): Your 0x... wallet to check existing balance Returns: Setup guide with pricing, capabilities, and next steps.

It is categorised as a Read tool in the MailerAstro MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for mailerastro_get_started. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the MailerAstro MCP server.
mailerastro_get_started 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 mailerastro_get_started 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 mailerastro_get_started. 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.
mailerastro_get_started is provided by the MailerAstro MCP server (mailerastro/mailerastro-email). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
