Why list_wallets needs a policy

This tool retrieves wallet information without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any financial transactions. It is a read-only operation that returns data about existing wallets. While it accesses financial infrastructure (Circle wallets), the action itself is passive enumeration with no side effects or ability to move funds or commit obligations.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_wallets' and description 'List all Circle wallets' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no modification or execution of external operations.

How to control list_wallets

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 list_wallets:

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

list_wallets 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 Ap2 — 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.
