Part of the Slideforge MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents call suggest_template to retrieve information from Slideforge 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 suggest_template 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.

Other tools in the Read risk category across the catalogue. The same policy patterns (rate-limit, allow) apply to each.
Suggest the best template for slide brief(s). Returns ranked matches with UUIDs, scores, and param schemas. Single brief: pass 'brief' → one suggestion result. Batch (for decks): pass 'briefs' array → all matched in parallel, one call. If has_good_match is true, use render_slide with the template UUID. If false, use generate_slide for creative AI design.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Slideforge MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for suggest_template. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Slideforge MCP server.
suggest_template 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_template 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 suggest_template. 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_template is provided by the Slideforge MCP server (smartdatabrokers/slideforge). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Open source. One binary. Zero dependencies.
