AI agents use request_buyer_code to create or modify resources in Kifly — Agentic Commerce & Payments. 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 request_buyer_code repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Kifly — Agentic Commerce & Payments.

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

What does the request_buyer_code tool do? +

Send a 6-digit verification code to a returning buyer's email so they can prove the account is theirs and recover their saved name + shipping address on this connection — without pasting any token. Call this when the buyer says they've shopped with Kifly before and gives you their email; then ask them to read you the code from their inbox and call verify_buyer. Returns { sent: true }. If the email has no account yet, fails with buyer_not_found — in that case call register_buyer instead. Requires the buyer:write capability (marketplace/network keys).. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Kifly — Agentic Commerce & Payments MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on request_buyer_code? +

Register the Kifly — Agentic Commerce & Payments MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for request_buyer_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 Kifly — Agentic Commerce & Payments. Nothing to install.

What risk level is request_buyer_code? +

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

Can I rate-limit request_buyer_code? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the request_buyer_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 request_buyer_code completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for request_buyer_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 request_buyer_code? +

request_buyer_code is provided by the Kifly — Agentic Commerce & Payments MCP server (https://kifly.ai/api/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
