XJTLUmedia/x23 Write Risk 2/5

AI agents use lint_markdown to create or modify resources in AI Answer Copier. 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 lint_markdown 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 AI Answer Copier.

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

What risk level is lint_markdown? +

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

Can I rate-limit lint_markdown? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the lint_markdown 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.
