RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs wage_calc safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and ScorpTech x402 API, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For wage_calc, this is the rule to start with:

wage_calc Rate-limited

wage_calc stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

FAQ

Questions about wage_calc

What does the wage_calc tool do? +

Gross pay in exact cents. Hourly: regular hours at the rate, overtime hours at a multiplier (default 1.5) and double-time hours at a multiplier (default 2). Weekly: hours above the threshold (default 40) are overtime. Salary: the annual amount is split across 52, 26, 24 or 12 periods so the paychecks add back to the annual amount. Extra straight-time hours are paid at annual / 2080 (52 × 40). Overtime and double-time hours use that same base rate times their multipliers. Price: $0.001 USDC per successful call (x402, Solana). Same tool over HTTPS: GET https://scorptech.it.com/api/x402/v1/wage-calc. It is categorised as a Write tool in the ScorpTech x402 API MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

What parameters does wage_calc accept? +

wage_calc accepts 10 parameters: mode, rate, hours, dtHours, otHours, periods, dtMultiplier, otMultiplier, regularHours, weeklyThreshold. Required: rate. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on wage_calc? +

Register the ScorpTech x402 API MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for wage_calc: 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 ScorpTech x402 API. Nothing to install.

What risk level is wage_calc? +

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

Can I rate-limit wage_calc? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the wage_calc 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 wage_calc completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for wage_calc. 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 wage_calc? +

wage_calc is provided by the ScorpTech x402 API MCP server (https://scorptech.it.com/api/x402/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
