Part of the SmartBear MCP MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents use swagger_standardize_api to create or modify resources in SmartBear MCP. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.
Without a policy, an AI agent could call swagger_standardize_api repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. Intercept's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach SmartBear MCP.
Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Standardize and fix an API definition using AI to ensure compliance with governance policies. Scans the API definition for standardization errors and automatically fixes them using SmartBear AI. Optionally provide 'newVersion' (e.g. patch bump '1.0.0' → '1.0.1') to save the fixed definition as a new version — omitting it will overwrite the current version. Returns the number of errors found and the fixed definition if successful. Use this tool when users ask to standardize, fix, govern, or ensure governance compliance of APIs. **Parameters:** - owner (string) *required*: API owner (organization or user, case-sensitive) - api (string) *required*: API name (case-sensitive) - version (string) *required*: Version identifier - newVersion (string): The version to save the fixed definition as (e.g. '1.0.1'). Omitting this will overwrite the current version — prefer providing a patch bump (e.g. '1.0.0' → '1.0.1') unless the user specifies otherwise.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the SmartBear MCP MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for swagger_standardize_api. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the SmartBear MCP MCP server.
swagger_standardize_api is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the swagger_standardize_api 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 swagger_standardize_api. 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.
swagger_standardize_api is provided by the SmartBear MCP MCP server (@smartbear/mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
