Why 1ly_create_link needs a policy

This tool creates new API links, which is a reversible write operation. While the broader server context involves financial transactions (USDC, token launches), this specific tool's function is to create/configure API links, not to move money directly.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Create a new API link' — a creation action that modifies data by adding a new resource. The context (1ly.store, buy/sell APIs, USDC payments) indicates this creates billable or financial API endpoints.

Risk signalsAccepts URL/endpoint input (url)

How to control 1ly_create_link

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and 1ly, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for 1ly_create_link:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "1ly_create_link": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "1ly_create_link_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

1ly_create_link 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.

  1. Create a free account and register 1ly — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
