What check_const_correctness does on C++ Style Guide MCP Server

AI agents call check_const_correctness to retrieve information from C++ Style Guide MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why check_const_correctness needs a policy

This tool performs static analysis of C++ code to identify const correctness violations. It reads code, performs linting/style checks, and returns a report with findings and suggestions. There are no side effects—no code is modified, executed, or deleted. This is purely a Read operation (retrieval and analysis of code properties).

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Identifies' and 'Returns a report' on const correctness issues. The verb 'check' and action of analyzing code for compliance issues indicate retrieval and analysis of information about code quality, with no modification of code or…

Questions about check_const_correctness

What does the check_const_correctness tool do? +

Check C++ code for const correctness issues. Identifies member functions that do not modify state but are missing the const qualifier, non-const references where const references would suffice, and variables that are never modified but not declared const. Returns a report with specific locations and suggested fixes. It is categorised as a Read tool in the C++ Style Guide MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on check_const_correctness? +

Register the C++ Style Guide MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for check_const_correctness: 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 C++ Style Guide MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is check_const_correctness? +

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

Can I rate-limit check_const_correctness? +

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

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

check_const_correctness is provided by the C++ Style Guide MCP Server MCP server (songjiangzhou/cpp_guidelines_mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
