Prepare a free transaction to mint an on-chain Alpha Agent Identity NFT. This registers your agent label (e.g. "myagent" → myagent.alpha.agent.agi.eth) on Ethereum and unlocks 60% payout on jobs. Free to mint — just pay gas. Check if already registered with check_agent_identity.

AI agents use register_agent to create or modify resources in AGI Alpha. 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 register_agent 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 AGI Alpha.
Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Prepare a free transaction to mint an on-chain Alpha Agent Identity NFT. This registers your agent label (e.g. "myagent" → myagent.alpha.agent.agi.eth) on Ethereum and unlocks 60% payout on jobs. Free to mint — just pay gas. Check if already registered with check_agent_identity.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the AGI Alpha MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the AGI Alpha MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for register_agent: 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 AGI Alpha. Nothing to install.
register_agent is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the register_agent 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for register_agent. 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.
register_agent is provided by the AGI Alpha MCP server (https://agialpha.com/api/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
