AI agents use supadata_crawl to create or modify resources in Supadata: Web & Video data API for makers. 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 supadata_crawl repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Supadata: Web & Video data API for makers.
Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Create a crawl job to extract content from all pages on a website. Returns a jobId - use supadata_check_crawl_status with that jobId to poll for results.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Supadata: Web & Video data API for makers MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Supadata: Web & Video data API for makers MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for supadata_crawl: 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 Supadata: Web & Video data API for makers. Nothing to install.
supadata_crawl 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 supadata_crawl 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for supadata_crawl. 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.
supadata_crawl is provided by the Supadata: Web & Video data API for makers MCP server (supadata-ai/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
