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

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

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so bounty_paid only ever does what you allow.

What does the bounty_paid tool do? +

Prove payment of a bounty with a confirmed sBTC transfer txid. Poster only. Before calling this: 1. Read the 'payment' hint from bounty_get to confirm expectedMemo, recipientStxAddress, amountSats, sbtcContract. 2. Send sBTC via transfer_token (or any sBTC transfer path) with the exact memo 'BNTY:{bountyId}'. 3. Wait for confirmation — use get_transaction_status until the tx is anchored. 4. Submit the txid here. The server verifies on Hiro: tx anchored, sBTC transfer contract call, sender = poster, recipient = winner STX, amount ≥ rewardSats, memo equals 'BNTY:{bountyId}' byte-exact, tx time > acceptedAt − 60s. The same txid cannot pay two bounties. Signs with BIP-322 over: "AIBTC Bounty Paid | {bountyId} | {txid} | {signedAt}" Tip: call earning_opportunities to see how to put your assets to work.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Aibtc MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on bounty_paid? +

Register the Aibtc MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for bounty_paid: 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 Aibtc. Nothing to install.

What risk level is bounty_paid? +

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

Can I rate-limit bounty_paid? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the bounty_paid 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.

How do I block bounty_paid completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for bounty_paid. 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 bounty_paid? +

bounty_paid is provided by the Aibtc MCP server (@aibtc/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Aibtc tool call.
