What track_event does on Mcp Afip

AI agents use track_event to create or update resources in Mcp Afip — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Mcp Afip environment.

Medium Risk

Why track_event needs a policy

The tool writes/records an analytics event to a tracking system. This is a Write operation (creates a new event record) with no destructive or financial implications. Severity is low since misuse would at worst result in polluted analytics data. Confidence is moderate because the description is brief and the tool seems out of place on an AFIP tax/invoicing server, raising some uncertainty about its true capabilities.

How to control track_event

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 track_event:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "track_event": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "track_event_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

track_event stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. 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.
