What feed_interest_oracle does on Indigo Protocol MCP
AI agents invoke feed_interest_oracle to trigger actions in Indigo Protocol 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.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
asset | string | — | |
owner | string | — | Oracle operator pub key hash (hex) |
address | string | — | Oracle operator Cardano bech32 address |
biasTime | string | — | Oracle bias time in milliseconds as bigint string |
newInterestRate | string | — | New interest rate as bigint string |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why feed_interest_oracle is rated High
This tool triggers an on-chain operation (submitting an oracle interest rate update) by constructing a transaction on a DeFi protocol. It modifies protocol state (interest rates) which affects all CDPs/loans referencing that iAsset. While it doesn't directly move money, feeding manipulated interest rates could have significant financial impact on borrowers and the protocol.
From the tool's definition Feed a new interest rate to the interest oracle for a given iAsset. Returns an unsigned transaction (CBOR hex) for client-side signing. Only callable by the oracle operator.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs feed_interest_oracle safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Indigo Protocol MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For feed_interest_oracle, this is the rule to start with:
feed_interest_oracle stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Indigo Protocol MCP, apply this rule, and every feed_interest_oracle call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about feed_interest_oracle
Feed a new interest rate to the interest oracle for a given iAsset. Returns an unsigned transaction (CBOR hex) for client-side signing. Only callable by the oracle operator. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Indigo Protocol MCP MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
feed_interest_oracle accepts 5 parameters: asset, owner, address, biasTime, newInterestRate. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Indigo Protocol MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for feed_interest_oracle: 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 Indigo Protocol MCP. Nothing to install.
feed_interest_oracle is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the feed_interest_oracle 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 feed_interest_oracle. 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.
feed_interest_oracle is provided by the Indigo Protocol MCP server (indigoprotocol/indigo-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
