list_request_activity

Returns recent persisted request activity for the authenticated tenant by default, or for the caller actor when scope=actor. Includes metered cost fields when available.

Part of the TokenOracle MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

AI agents call list_request_activity to retrieve information from TokenOracle 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 list_request_activity 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.

What does the list_request_activity tool do? +

Returns recent persisted request activity for the authenticated tenant by default, or for the caller actor when scope=actor. Includes metered cost fields when available.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the TokenOracle MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on list_request_activity? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for list_request_activity. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the TokenOracle MCP server.

What risk level is list_request_activity? +

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

Can I rate-limit list_request_activity? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the list_request_activity 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.

How do I block list_request_activity completely? +

Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for list_request_activity. 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 list_request_activity? +

list_request_activity is provided by the TokenOracle MCP server (token-oracle-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
