This tool retrieves information about ENS (Ethereum Name Service) name resolution—a read-only operation analogous to DNS lookups. It provides guidance/metadata rather than executing transactions, modifying state, or moving funds. The context (wallet/blockchain server) does not change the classification; the tool itself performs no writes, deletions, or financial actions.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'getEnsResolutionGuidance' and description 'Get guidance for resolving ENS names across networks and performing operations' indicate a lookup/query operation.

How to control getEnsResolutionGuidance

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "getEnsResolutionGuidance": {}
  }
}

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

  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
