What post_objects does on Mcp Ap2

AI agents use post_objects to create or update resources in Mcp Ap2 — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Mcp Ap2 environment.

Why post_objects needs a policy

This tool creates a new PLP (posting list) by closing and posting pre-posted objects. It creates/finalizes data (a new record/document), which is a Write operation. While it involves a payment-adjacent protocol (AP2), the action itself is about creating a posting record, not directly moving money.

From the tool's definition 'Close and post a list of pre-posted objects' and 'creates a PLP'

How to control post_objects

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 post_objects:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "post_objects": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "post_objects_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

post_objects stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. 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.

What risk level is post_objects? +

post_objects is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit post_objects? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the post_objects 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.

How do I block post_objects completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for post_objects. 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.

What MCP server provides post_objects? +
