Compute the substrate
AI agents call myco_current_intent to retrieve information from Myco — Agent-First Cognitive Substrate without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool name implies reading/fetching the current intent from the cognitive substrate. 'Compute' could suggest execution, but in context it most likely means deriving/querying a value rather than triggering side effects. The description is nearly empty, which significantly lowers confidence. Given sibling tools are mostly query/read operations (myco_query_*), this likely fits the Read category.
From the tool's definition 'Compute the substrate' is the entire description — vague and uninformative; tool name 'myco_current_intent' suggests retrieving or computing current intent state
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Compute the substrate. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Myco — Agent-First Cognitive Substrate MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Myco — Agent-First Cognitive Substrate MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for myco_current_intent: 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 Myco — Agent-First Cognitive Substrate. Nothing to install.
myco_current_intent 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 myco_current_intent 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 myco_current_intent. 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.
myco_current_intent is provided by the Myco — Agent-First Cognitive Substrate MCP server (myco). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
