This tool retrieves and summarizes data about time-locked Bitcoin SV holdings (total, unlockable amounts, next unlock height). It performs no write, destructive, or financial transaction operations—it only reads the state of locked funds. The blast radius is minimal as misuse would only expose wallet lock details to the AI agent without enabling unauthorized transactions or data modification.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'wallet_getLockData' and description 'Get summary of time-locked BSV' indicate a retrieval operation that queries wallet lock information without modifying, executing, or moving funds.

POLICY

How to control wallet_getLockData

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 wallet_getLockData:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "wallet_getLockData": {}
  }
}

wallet_getLockData is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

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