batch_analyze · Intelica MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What batch_analyze does on Intelica

AI agents invoke batch_analyze to trigger actions in Intelica. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why batch_analyze needs a policy

The description is empty, so confidence is reduced. Based on the server context and sibling tools (analyze_competitor, demo_analyze), batch_analyze likely runs multiple competitive intelligence analyses in bulk. This implies executing external HTTP requests/scraping against multiple URLs or company descriptions.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'batch_analyze' combined with server context: 'analyze any URL or company description', 'Payments via x402 protocol ($0.05 USDC on Base mainnet)'

Verdict

batch_analyze Rate-limited

batch_analyze stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
