Bulk/mass operation — affects multiple targets

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

AI agents invoke schema_overview to trigger processes or run actions in Valets Schema. 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.

schema_overview 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.

What does the schema_overview tool do? +

Get a high-level overview of the entire Valets data model. Start here to understand what models and enums exist before drilling into specifics.. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Valets Schema MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on schema_overview? +

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

What risk level is schema_overview? +

schema_overview is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit schema_overview? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the schema_overview 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 schema_overview completely? +

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

schema_overview is provided by the Valets Schema MCP server (@ingenx-io/valets-schema-mcp-server). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
