How to control verify_code ↓

AI agents invoke verify_code to trigger actions in Proxima. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

High Risk

The name 'verify_code' implies running or analyzing code to check its correctness, which maps to Execute. However, the empty description significantly lowers confidence. In the context of an AI gateway server with coding capabilities, verification likely involves executing or interpreting code.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'verify_code' suggests code execution or analysis; description is empty and uninformative.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access verify_code gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Proxima, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for verify_code:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "verify_code": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "verify_code_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

verify_code stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Proxima — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

What does the verify_code tool do? +

verify_code. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Proxima MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on verify_code? +

Register the Proxima MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for verify_code: 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 Proxima. Nothing to install.

What risk level is verify_code? +

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

Can I rate-limit verify_code? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the verify_code 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.

How do I block verify_code completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for verify_code. 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 verify_code? +

verify_code is provided by the Proxima MCP server (zen4-bit/proxima). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Proxima tool call.
