[CUSTOM] Calls the Marketo REST API directly (not Adobe's native MCP).
AI agents call custom_describe_companies to retrieve information from Marketo MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries company information from Marketo. Despite the generic description mentioning 'calls REST API directly,' the specific function name strongly suggests a read-only operation that retrieves company metadata. No evidence of data modification, deletion, or external execution.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'custom_describe_companies' and description indicate it calls the Marketo REST API to retrieve company data. The verb 'describe' and absence of mutation language (create, update, delete) suggest data retrieval without side effects.

Register the Marketo MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for custom_describe_companies: 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 Marketo MCP Server. Nothing to install.
custom_describe_companies is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the custom_describe_companies 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 custom_describe_companies. 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.
