Part of the Pest Sentinel — AI Pest Risk Intelligence MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents call pestsentinel_list_zones to retrieve information from Pest Sentinel — AI Pest Risk Intelligence 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 pestsentinel_list_zones 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.

List all geographic zones covered by Pest Sentinel's weekly risk scoring. Pest Sentinel currently covers 500+ zones across 12 US states and 7 Canadian provinces. Each zone is a neighborhood or district within a major city. Args: - country (string, optional): Filter by country code — 'US' or 'CA' - province (string, optional): Filter by state/province code (e.g., 'TX', 'FL', 'ON', 'QC') - region (string, optional): Filter by city/region name (e.g., 'Chicago', 'Toronto') - limit (number): Max results to return, 1–200 (default: 50) - offset (number): Pagination offset (default: 0) - response_format ('markdown' | 'json'): Output format (default: 'markdown') Returns: List of zones with id, name, region, province, country, and coordinates. Examples: - "Show me all zones in Texas" → province='TX' - "What zones are covered in Toronto?" → region='Toronto' - "List all US zones" → country='US'. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Pest Sentinel — AI Pest Risk Intelligence MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for pestsentinel_list_zones. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Pest Sentinel — AI Pest Risk Intelligence MCP server.
pestsentinel_list_zones 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 pestsentinel_list_zones 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.
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for pestsentinel_list_zones. 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.
pestsentinel_list_zones is provided by the Pest Sentinel — AI Pest Risk Intelligence MCP server (pestsentinel/pest-intelligence). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
