Run an AVS/CVC account verification on a card without charging it. Returns the verification outcome and a card-on-file or one-time verification record. merchant.entity is injected automatically.
AI agents call verify_account 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 performs a read-only verification check on card details. AVS (Address Verification System) and CVC (Card Verification Code) verification are non-destructive lookups that confirm card validity without side effects. Although it touches financial data (credit cards), it does not move money, create obligations, or modify state — it simply retrieves and returns a verification outcome.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Run[s] an AVS/CVC account verification on a card without charging it' and 'Returns the verification outcome.' The key phrase is 'without charging it' — no financial transaction occurs, no data is modified or deleted, and no code…
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access verify_account 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 verify_account:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"verify_account": {}
}
} verify_account is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
Free to start. No card required.
Run an AVS/CVC account verification on a card without charging it. Returns the verification outcome and a card-on-file or one-time verification record. merchant.entity is injected automatically. 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 verify_account: 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.
verify_account 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 verify_account 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 verify_account. 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.
verify_account 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.
