product_types

Returns a list of valid text product types and codes

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

AI agents call product_types to retrieve information from Zuplo Weather 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 product_types 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.

What does the product_types tool do? +

Returns a list of valid text product types and codes. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Zuplo Weather MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on product_types? +

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

What risk level is product_types? +

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

Can I rate-limit product_types? +

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

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

product_types is provided by the Zuplo Weather MCP server (mrodasensio/aicol). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
