Critical Risk

Why sign_sell_url needs a policy

This tool builds and cryptographically signs a URL for MoonPay's sell widget, which enables cryptocurrency-to-fiat selling transactions. By generating a signed redirect URL with API credentials, it initiates or authorizes a financial transaction (selling crypto). This falls squarely in the Financial category as it commits the user to a financial operation via a payment processor.

From the tool's definition sign_sell_url, 'MoonPay sell widget URL (sell.moonpay.com)', 'MOONPAY_PUBLISHABLE_KEY and MOONPAY_SECRET_KEY'

How to control sign_sell_url

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 sign_sell_url:

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

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