wjx-mcp-server Write Risk 3/5

AI agents use upload_file to create or modify resources in Wjx. 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 upload_file repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. Intercept's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Wjx.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

What does the upload_file tool do? +

上传图片文件用于问卷。支持 png/jpg/gif/jpeg/bmp/webp 格式,文件以 Base64 编码传入,最大约 4MB。. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Wjx MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on upload_file? +

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

What risk level is upload_file? +

upload_file is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit upload_file? +

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

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

upload_file is provided by the Wjx MCP server (wjx-mcp-server). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
