Why company_check needs a policy

This is a Know-Your-Business (KYB) lookup tool that queries and retrieves corporate information from AFIP records. It performs validation and returns existing data about a company (corporate profile, shareholders/QSA, regulatory status, sanctions). There are no side effects, no data creation/modification, and no irreversible actions.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'validate a CNPJ, return corporate profile, QSA, regularity, sanctions' — all read-only query operations. POST method is used for validation request submission, but returns data only; no modification, deletion, or state changes occur.

How to control company_check

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Afip, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for company_check:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "company_check": {}
  }
}

company_check is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Mcp Afip — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
