Validate BQL syntax before execution. Use this to check if a query is valid without running it.
AI agents call birst_validate_query to retrieve information from Infor Birst MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only validates query syntax and returns validation results; it does not execute queries, modify data, delete data, or trigger external operations. It is a safe, read-only diagnostic tool with no side effects. Low severity because misuse cannot cause data loss, unauthorized access beyond read patterns, or financial impact.

Validate BQL syntax before execution. Use this to check if a query is valid without running it. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Infor Birst MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Infor Birst MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for birst_validate_query: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Infor Birst MCP Server. Nothing to install.
birst_validate_query 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 birst_validate_query rule in your PolicyLayer 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 PolicyLayer policy for birst_validate_query. 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.
birst_validate_query is provided by the Infor Birst MCP Server MCP server (mikahdev/infor-birst-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
