@aibtc/mcp-server Execute Risk 3/5

AI agents invoke yield_hunter_start to trigger processes or run actions in Aibtc. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.

yield_hunter_start can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. Intercept enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.

Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

What does the yield_hunter_start tool do? +

Start autonomous yield hunting. This will: 1. Monitor your wallet for sBTC 2. Automatically deposit sBTC to Zest Protocol when balance exceeds threshold 3. Keep a configurable reserve (default: 0, deposits all sBTC) 4. Wait for transaction confirmations before proceeding 5. Retry failed transactions with exponential backoff 6. Run continuously until stopped Requires an unlocked wallet (use wallet_unlock first). Only works on mainnet (Zest Protocol is mainnet-only). Note: Stacks transaction fees are paid in STX, not sBTC. Default settings: - Deposit threshold: 10,000 sats (0.0001 sBTC) - Reserve: 0 sats (deposit all sBTC to maximize yield) - Check interval: 10 minutes. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Aibtc MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on yield_hunter_start? +

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

yield_hunter_start is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit yield_hunter_start? +

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

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

yield_hunter_start 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.
