What get_token does on Mcp Afip

AI agents call get_token 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.

Why get_token needs a policy

The tool performs a query/retrieval of stored token metadata without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It explicitly does not expose sensitive PAN data. The blast radius is minimal—an AI agent misusing this would only gain visibility into non-sensitive token details already associated with the account.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_token' and description states it 'Retrieve[s] metadata for a previously stored card token' including 'brand, last 4, expiration' but 'Does not return the PAN.' This is a retrieval operation with no side effects.

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

How to control get_token

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_token:

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

get_token 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.

How do I enforce a policy on get_token? +

Register the Mcp Afip MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_token: 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.

What risk level is get_token? +

get_token is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit get_token? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_token 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.

How do I block get_token completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_token. 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.

What MCP server provides get_token? +

get_token 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.
