list_cliques

List available cliques (audience groups) to target with campaigns. Each clique shows member count and type. Use clique_id when calling send_campaign.

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

AI agents call list_cliques to retrieve information from MemoTrader MCP 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 list_cliques 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.

How do I enforce a policy on list_cliques? +

What risk level is list_cliques? +

list_cliques is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit list_cliques? +

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

Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for list_cliques. 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.
