Why payment_details needs a policy

This tool submits data that directly affects payment processing flows, including 3DS challenge responses which are authentication steps in financial transactions. Interacting with payment authorization mechanisms falls squarely in the Financial category. Misuse could manipulate payment authentication, potentially enabling fraudulent transactions or bypassing security checks, warranting critical severity.

How to control payment_details

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 payment_details:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "payment_details": {
      "deny_if": [
        {
          "conditions": [],
          "on_deny": "Requires human approval."
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Any call to payment_details is blocked until a human approves it. The rest of the server keeps working.
