Compare AI performance results

Part of the Project Management AI Analysis MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

pm-mcp-servers Read Risk 2/5

AI agents call compare_results to retrieve information from Project Management AI Analysis 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 compare_results 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 compare_results tool do? +

Compare AI performance results. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Project Management AI Analysis MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on compare_results? +

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

What risk level is compare_results? +

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

Can I rate-limit compare_results? +

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

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

compare_results is provided by the Project Management AI Analysis MCP server (pm-mcp-servers). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
