Part of the Strale MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents invoke strale_execute to trigger processes or run actions in Strale. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.
strale_execute can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. Intercept enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.
Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

Run a Strale capability by slug — validate an IBAN, look up a company in 27 countries, screen against sanctions/PEP lists, extract data from a URL or PDF, check VAT numbers, verify email deliverability, assess wallet risk, check token contract safety, resolve ENS names, look up DeFi protocol TVL, and 270+ more. Returns structured JSON output with SQS quality score, latency, and data provenance. Free capabilities (email-validate, dns-lookup, json-repair, url-to-markdown, iban-validate) work without an API key. Use strale_search first to find the right slug and required inputs.. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Strale MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for strale_execute. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Strale MCP server.
strale_execute is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the strale_execute 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 strale_execute. 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.
strale_execute is provided by the Strale MCP server (strale-io/strale). 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.
