## Facts

- Tool: `compile_teal`
- Server: Algorand MCP (`goplausible/algorand-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/goplausible-algorand-mcp.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/GoPlausible/algorand-mcp
- Risk category: Execute (High risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "compile_teal",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why compile_teal is rated High

This tool executes a compiler to transform TEAL source code into bytecode. While compilation itself is deterministic, the resulting bytecode can be deployed to perform arbitrary blockchain operations (transfers, state changes, etc.). In the context of an AI agent with access to sibling tools like alpha_create_market_order and alpha_claim, compiled contracts could be weaponized.

From the tool's own definition: "Compile TEAL source code - TEAL is Algorand's smart contract language; compilation is code execution that produces executable bytecode for blockchain deployment"

## Use case

AI agents invoke compile_teal to trigger actions in Algorand MCP. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Algorand MCP:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "compile_teal": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "compile_teal_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
