get_feature_usage

Get feature usage data for a company. Shows access status, usage vs allocation, and entitlement source for each feature. Optionally filter to a specific feature by providing featureId. If you only know the feature name, use list_features first to find the feature ID, then pass it here as featureId.

Single-target operation

Part of the Schematic MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

AI agents call get_feature_usage to retrieve information from Schematic 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 get_feature_usage 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 get_feature_usage tool do? +

Get feature usage data for a company. Shows access status, usage vs allocation, and entitlement source for each feature. Optionally filter to a specific feature by providing featureId. If you only know the feature name, use list_features first to find the feature ID, then pass it here as featureId.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Schematic MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on get_feature_usage? +

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

What risk level is get_feature_usage? +

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

Can I rate-limit get_feature_usage? +

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

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

get_feature_usage is provided by the Schematic MCP server (@schematichq/schematic-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
