MOST DANGEROUS TOOLS

Critical Risk

The most dangerous SIMcloud tools

Financial · High create_airtime_order Creating an airtime order constitutes a financial commitment: it charges the user's wallet or account balance to purchase prepaid airtime for a given MSISDN. Financial · High create_data_order Creating a data order involves purchasing a prepaid data bundle, which constitutes a financial obligation/commitment. Financial · Critical create_electricity_order Creating an electricity order commits financial obligations by purchasing prepaid electricity tokens, debiting the wallet/account balance. Financial · High create_vas_order Creating a VAS voucher order involves spending funds from the authenticated SIMcloud wallet.

5 of SIMcloud's 14 tools can modify, destroy, or commit something on every call — and an agent calls them with no built-in limits.

POLICY

How to control SIMcloud

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and SIMcloud, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. These are the rules we recommend:

Block financial tools by default

{
  "create_airtime_order": {
    "deny_if": [
      {
        "conditions": [],
        "on_deny": "Requires human approval."
      }
    ]
  }
}

Financial tools should be explicitly enabled per use case, not open by default.

Cap read operations

{
  "get_airtime_order": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "get_airtime_order_per_minute",
        "window": "minute",
        "max": 60,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.

Create a free account and register SIMcloud — nothing to install.
Add these rules — paste them, or build them visually. Tune the limits to your setup.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

FAQ

Questions about SIMcloud

Can an AI agent move money through the SIMcloud MCP server? +

Yes. The SIMcloud server exposes 4 financial tools including create_airtime_order, create_data_order, create_electricity_order. Without a policy, an autonomous agent can call these with no spend caps, no rate limits, and no approval flow. PolicyLayer lets you block financial tools by default, require human approval, or set per-tool rate limits — enforced on every call.

How many tools does the SIMcloud MCP server expose? +

14 tools across 2 categories: Read, Write. 9 are read-only. 5 can modify, create, or delete data.

How do I enforce a policy on SIMcloud? +

Register the SIMcloud MCP server in PolicyLayer, apply the suggested rules above (adjust the limits to your use case), and point your AI client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL instead of the server directly. Your agents keep the same tools; PolicyLayer evaluates every call against policy before it executes. Nothing to install, live in minutes.

Enforce policy on every SIMcloud tool call.

Deterministic rules across all 14 SIMcloud tools. Per-identity grants. Full audit log. Live in minutes. Nothing to install.
