Verify a Stacks message signature and recover the signer

Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `stacks_verify_message`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-aibtcdev-mcp-server/stacks-verify-message

## Facts

- Tool: `stacks_verify_message`
- Server: Aibtc (`aibtcdev/aibtc-mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-aibtcdev-mcp-server.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/aibtcdev/aibtc-mcp-server
- Risk category: Read (Low risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity verified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Allowed

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "stacks_verify_message",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why stacks_verify_message is rated Low

Message signature verification is a fundamental cryptographic operation used for authentication and integrity checking. The tool only reads and validates existing data (the message and signature) without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing anything.

From the tool's own definition: "The tool 'stacks_verify_message' performs cryptographic verification of a message signature and recovers the signer's public key/address."

## Use case

AI agents call stacks_verify_message to retrieve information from Aibtc without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Aibtc:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "stacks_verify_message": {}
  }
}
```

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
