import_account_from_private_key

Import a COTI account using only a private key. The public key will be derived automatically, and the AES key placeholder will be set (fund the account to generate a real AES key).

Handles credentials or secrets (private_key)

Part of the COTI MCP Server MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

davibauer/coti-mcp Write Risk 3/5

AI agents use import_account_from_private_key to create or modify resources in COTI MCP Server. 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 import_account_from_private_key repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. Intercept's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach COTI MCP Server.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

What does the import_account_from_private_key tool do? +

Import a COTI account using only a private key. The public key will be derived automatically, and the AES key placeholder will be set (fund the account to generate a real AES key).. It is categorised as a Write tool in the COTI MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on import_account_from_private_key? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for import_account_from_private_key. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the COTI MCP Server MCP server.

What risk level is import_account_from_private_key? +

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

Can I rate-limit import_account_from_private_key? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the import_account_from_private_key rule in your Intercept 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 import_account_from_private_key completely? +

Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for import_account_from_private_key. 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 import_account_from_private_key? +

import_account_from_private_key is provided by the COTI MCP Server MCP server (davibauer/coti-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
