AI agents call get_cob to retrieve information from Mcp Afip without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves financial transaction details (Pix charge information) but performs no write, execute, or destructive operations. It is a pure read operation that queries existing data. While it accesses financial data, the severity is low because merely retrieving charge details does not move money, create obligations, or expose the system to significant risk from misuse.
From the tool's definition 'Get Pix charge details by txid' — queries charge information by transaction identifier without modifying or executing operations.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_cob gives an agent:
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_cob:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_cob": {}
}
} get_cob is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get Pix charge details by txid. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcp Afip MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Mcp Afip MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_cob: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Mcp Afip. Nothing to install.
get_cob is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_cob rule in your PolicyLayer 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_cob. 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.
get_cob is provided by the Mcp Afip MCP server (codespar/mcp-dev-latam). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Mcp Afip, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
