What chat_prompt_complete does on Mcp Odbc

AI agents invoke chat_prompt_complete to trigger actions in Mcp Odbc. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

Why chat_prompt_complete needs a policy

This tool triggers an external backend operation (OPAL) to process and complete a chat prompt. It involves executing a request against an external AI/LLM service, which qualifies as triggering external operations. The description is vague about side effects, but running completions against a backend service is at minimum Execute-level.

How to control chat_prompt_complete

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Odbc, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for chat_prompt_complete:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "chat_prompt_complete": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "chat_prompt_complete_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

chat_prompt_complete stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Mcp Odbc — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
