Execute an FX conversion between wallet currencies (e.g. swap USD received into BRL before settling locally). Pass quote_id for a locked quoted rate, or omit for a market rate.
AI agents use create_conversion to commit financial operations through Mcp Ap2 — usually the final step of a payment, billing, or trading workflow. A call moves real money.
This tool performs a foreign exchange conversion between currency wallets, which constitutes a financial transaction that moves or commits funds. FX conversions are irreversible once executed at a locked or market rate, making this a Financial action with critical severity since an AI agent misusing this could cause significant monetary loss or unintended currency swaps.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_conversion gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Ap2, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create_conversion:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"create_conversion": {
"deny_if": [
{
"conditions": [],
"on_deny": "Requires human approval."
}
]
}
}
} Any call to create_conversion is blocked until a human approves it. The rest of the server keeps working.

Execute an FX conversion between wallet currencies (e.g. swap USD received into BRL before settling locally). Pass quote_id for a locked quoted rate, or omit for a market rate. It is categorised as a Financial tool in the Mcp Ap2 MCP Server, which means it involves financial transactions. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Mcp Ap2 MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_conversion: 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 Ap2. Nothing to install.
create_conversion is a Financial tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_conversion 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 create_conversion. 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.
create_conversion is provided by the Mcp Ap2 MCP server (@codespar/mcp-ap2). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Mcp Ap2, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
