AI agents call rc_connect to retrieve information from RC Engine without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool reads and analyzes existing forge artifacts (API wiring, authentication flows, data model alignment) and produces a report. It does not modify, execute, or delete any data — it is purely analytical/observational in nature. Severity is low because misuse would at worst produce an inaccurate integration report.

Phase 7 (Connect). Verifies that all built components integrate correctly. Reviews forge outputs for API wiring, authentication flows, data model alignment, and cross-component dependencies. Generates an integration report with gaps and recommended integration tests. No user input needed - reads forge artifacts automatically. Prerequisites: Phase 6 gate approved. After gate approval: moves to Phase 8 (Compound). It is categorised as a Read tool in the RC Engine MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the RC Engine MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for rc_connect: 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 RC Engine. Nothing to install.
rc_connect 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 rc_connect 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 rc_connect. 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.
rc_connect is provided by the RC Engine MCP server (originalrashmi/rc-engine-product-framework). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
