Why verify_customer needs a policy

This tool performs Know-Your-Customer (KYC) verification, which is a data retrieval and validation operation rather than a financial transaction, data modification, or destructive action. However, it touches on financial/compliance domain and could reveal sensitive customer identity information, warranting medium severity. The idempotent nature confirms it does not have side effects that modify system state.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Trigger the KYC verification check' and notes it is 'Idempotent — returns 422', indicating it queries/checks customer verification status rather than modifying financial records or executing transactions.

How to control verify_customer

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_customer:

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

verify_customer 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.
