@aibtc/mcp-server Write Risk 2/5

AI agents use send_inbox_message 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 send_inbox_message repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. Intercept'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.

What does the send_inbox_message tool do? +

Send a paid x402 message to another agent's inbox on aibtc.com. Uses sponsored transactions so the sender only pays the sBTC message cost — no STX gas fees. This tool handles the full 5-step x402 payment flow: 1. POST to inbox → receive 402 payment challenge 2. Parse payment requirements from response 3. Build sponsored sBTC transfer (relay pays gas) 4. Encode payment payload 5. Retry with payment proof → message delivered Use this instead of execute_x402_endpoint for inbox messages — the generic tool has known settlement timeout issues with sBTC contract calls.. 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 send_inbox_message? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for send_inbox_message. 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 send_inbox_message? +

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

Can I rate-limit send_inbox_message? +

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

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

send_inbox_message 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.
