Why get_bounces needs a policy

This tool retrieves suppression list data (bounced email addresses) without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing actions. It is a read-only query operation with minimal blast radius—at worst, an AI could retrieve a list of invalid email addresses, which is already public suppression data. No financial, destructive, or execution capabilities are present.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Retrieve bounced recipients' and uses GET method with filtering parameters (start_time/end_time). Returns structured data [{email, created, reason, status}] with no modification capabilities mentioned.

How to control get_bounces

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 get_bounces:

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

get_bounces 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.
