Why create_quote needs a policy

This tool locks a foreign exchange quote involving fiat-to-stablecoin or stablecoin-to-fiat conversions with associated fees. Even though it's described as a 'quote' (not a final transaction), locking an FX quote with a TTL often commits the system to a rate and may trigger downstream financial obligations.

From the tool's definition Lock an FX + fee quote for a 5-minute TTL... on_ramp (fiat → stablecoin) and off_ramp (stablecoin → fiat)... fees

How to control create_quote

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 create_quote:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "create_quote": {
      "deny_if": [
        {
          "conditions": [],
          "on_deny": "Requires human approval."
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Any call to create_quote is blocked until a human approves it. The rest of the server keeps working.

  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.
