Read social posts from the BSV blockchain using BMAP API. Can fetch posts by author (BAP ID), specific post by transaction ID, or recent posts from all users. Supports pagination and feed functionality.
AI agents call bsocial_readPosts to retrieve information from Bitcoin SV MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries social post data from the blockchain without any side effects. It performs data retrieval operations (fetch, read) across multiple query patterns but does not create, modify, delete, or execute any operations. The capability to paginate and filter results does not change its fundamental read-only nature. This is a straightforward Read category tool with low risk of misuse.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Bitcoin SV MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for bsocial_readPosts:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"bsocial_readPosts": {}
}
} bsocial_readPosts is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

bsocial_readPosts is provided by the Bitcoin SV MCP Server MCP server (b-open-io/bsv-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Bitcoin SV MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
