Set or change authority for a token mint or account

AI agents use set_token_authority to create or modify resources in Solana. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.
Without a policy, an AI agent could call set_token_authority repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Solana.
Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access set_token_authority gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:
Other write tools across the catalogue. The same approach applies to each: rate-limit and validate the arguments.
Set or change authority for a token mint or account. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Solana MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Solana MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for set_token_authority: 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 Solana. Nothing to install.
set_token_authority is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the set_token_authority 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 set_token_authority. 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.
set_token_authority is provided by the Solana MCP server (ExpertVagabond/solana-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
