Maps a natural-language intent (e.g.
AI agents call suggest_component to retrieve information from Grocers Design without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves component suggestions based on natural-language input, returning design system data without side effects. It is analogous to a search or recommendation engine, fitting the Read category. The low severity reflects that misuse produces only informational output with no blast radius to system state or external resources.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'suggest_component' with description prefix 'Maps a natural-language intent' indicates a query/lookup operation. Sibling tools include 'get_component', 'list_components', 'search', and 'validate_snippet'—all Read operations.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Maps a natural-language intent (e.g. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Grocers Design MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Grocers Design MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for suggest_component: 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 Grocers Design. Nothing to install.
suggest_component 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 suggest_component 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 suggest_component. 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.
suggest_component is provided by the Grocers Design MCP server (rogerio-ignacio-filho/grocers-design-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
