WHAT IT DOES

What wallet_switch does on Aibtc

AI agents use wallet_switch to create or update resources in Aibtc, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Aibtc environment.

RISK

Why wallet_switch is rated Medium

Switching the active wallet modifies application state by changing which wallet is currently in use. This is a reversible configuration change (Write), not a financial transaction itself. However, misuse could facilitate unauthorized access to other wallets, hence medium severity. Confidence is moderate as the description is brief and doesn't detail all side effects.

From the tool's definition Switch to a different wallet. The new wallet will need to be unlocked before use.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs wallet_switch safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Aibtc, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For wallet_switch, this is the rule to start with:

wallet_switch Rate-limited

wallet_switch 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.
