Critical Risk

Why create_swap needs a policy

An onchain swap moves or exchanges financial assets between parties, which constitutes a financial transaction. Despite the AFIP server context (tax/invoicing), this tool clearly operates on financial assets via blockchain. Misuse could result in unauthorized asset transfers. Severity is critical due to irreversible nature of onchain transactions and direct financial impact.

From the tool's definition 'Create an onchain swap between two assets' — initiates a blockchain/financial asset exchange transaction

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_swap gives an agent:

How to control create_swap

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_swap:

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

Any call to create_swap 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.
