execute_query
Execute a potentially destructive SQL query (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, etc.)
Part of the Turso MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
WHEN AI AGENTS USE THIS TOOL
AI agents invoke execute_query to trigger processes or run actions in Turso. 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.
WHY ENFORCE A POLICY ON EXECUTE_QUERY
execute_query 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.
RECOMMENDED POLICY
Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What does the execute_query tool do?
Execute a potentially destructive SQL query (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, etc.). It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Turso MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
How do I enforce a policy on execute_query?
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for execute_query. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Turso MCP server.
What risk level is execute_query?
execute_query is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Can I rate-limit execute_query?
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the execute_query 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 execute_query completely?
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for execute_query. 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 execute_query?
execute_query is provided by the Turso MCP server (mcp-turso-cloud). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
