@bazaar.ai/mcp-human-agents Execute Risk 3/5

// WHEN AI AGENTS USE THIS TOOL

AI agents invoke toggle_autoplans to trigger processes or run actions in Mcp Human Agents. 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.

// WHY ENFORCE A POLICY ON TOGGLE_AUTOPLANS

toggle_autoplans 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.

// RECOMMENDED POLICY

Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

mcp-human-agents.yaml

tools:
  toggle_autoplans:
    rules:
      - action: allow

        validate:

What does the toggle_autoplans tool do? +

Toggle the auto-plans setting. 'on' = summon a human before writing any plan (always). 'off' = only summon a human when the user explicitly asks.

It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Mcp Human Agents MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on toggle_autoplans? +

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

What risk level is toggle_autoplans? +

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

Can I rate-limit toggle_autoplans? +

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

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

toggle_autoplans is provided by the Mcp Human Agents MCP server (@bazaar.ai/mcp-human-agents). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
