WHAT IT DOES

What radql_query_builder does on RAD Security

AI agents invoke radql_query_builder to trigger actions in RAD Security. 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.

THE RISK

High Risk

Why radql_query_builder needs a policy

This tool constructs and executes RadQL queries against the RAD Security API. While it may appear to be a query-building helper (Read), it executes programmatically constructed queries that could have broad scope depending on the conditions supplied. The dynamic query construction introduces risk that complex or malformed queries could trigger unintended data exposure or resource-intensive operations.

From the tool's definition 'build RadQL queries programmatically from structured conditions' and 'construct complex filter or stats queries from structured inputs'

POLICY

How to control radql_query_builder

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "radql_query_builder": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "radql_query_builder_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

radql_query_builder 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.

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

FAQ

Questions about radql_query_builder

What does the radql_query_builder tool do? +

Helper tool to build RadQL queries programmatically from structured conditions. Useful when you need to construct complex filter or stats queries from structured inputs. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the RAD Security MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on radql_query_builder? +

Register the RAD Security MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for radql_query_builder: 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 RAD Security. Nothing to install.

What risk level is radql_query_builder? +

radql_query_builder is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit radql_query_builder? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the radql_query_builder 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.

How do I block radql_query_builder completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for radql_query_builder. 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 radql_query_builder? +

radql_query_builder is provided by the RAD Security MCP server (rad-security/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every RAD Security tool call.

Start from RAD Security, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
