@aibtc/mcp-server Destructive Risk 4/5

AI agents may call recover_sponsor_nonce to permanently remove or destroy resources in Aibtc. Without a policy, an autonomous agent could delete critical data in a loop with no way to undo the damage. Intercept blocks destructive tools by default and requires explicit human approval before enabling them.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call recover_sponsor_nonce in a loop, permanently destroying resources in Aibtc. There is no undo for destructive operations. Intercept blocks this tool by default and only allows it when a human explicitly approves the action.

Destructive tools permanently remove data. Block by default. Only enable with explicit approval workflows.

What does the recover_sponsor_nonce tool do? +

Attempt automated recovery of stuck sponsor transactions via the relay API, or resync the local nonce counter. Run check_relay_health first to identify stuck txids and missing nonces, then use this tool to trigger recovery without needing to contact the AIBTC team manually. Recovery modes: - rbf: Replace-by-fee — rebroadcasts stuck transactions with a higher fee so miners prioritize them. Provide specific txids or omit to bump all stuck transactions. - fill-gaps: Nonce gap-fill — submits placeholder transactions to fill any missing nonces that are blocking the queue. Provide specific nonces or omit to fill all gaps. - both: Attempt both RBF and gap-fill in sequence (default). - resync-local-nonce: Force-reset the MCP server's in-memory nonce counter for the active wallet. Use this when the local counter is out of sync with the chain (e.g. after a server restart, manual transaction sent outside the MCP server, or a confirmed-but-locally-stuck counter). The counter will be re-seeded from the chain on the next transaction. Requires the wallet to be unlocked. If the relay does not yet support relay endpoints it returns a 404 or 501 and this tool will respond with a clear message rather than throwing an error. In that case, share the txids and nonces from check_relay_health with the AIBTC team.. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Aibtc MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.

How do I enforce a policy on recover_sponsor_nonce? +

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

What risk level is recover_sponsor_nonce? +

recover_sponsor_nonce is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.

Can I rate-limit recover_sponsor_nonce? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the recover_sponsor_nonce 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 recover_sponsor_nonce completely? +

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

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