## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `async` | boolean | no | If true, returns a job_id immediately (<200ms) instead of waiting for the result. Poll the result with job_result(job_id). Use for slow tools to avoid client ti |

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "competitor_moves",
    "arguments": {
      "competitors": [],
      "selfCompany": {}
    }
  }
}
```

## Why competitor_moves is rated Critical

The server explicitly states '271 agent-payable tools' and 'x402 per-call', meaning every call to this tool commits a financial obligation (micropayment). The tool itself is a competitive intelligence read, but the payment mechanism makes Financial the most severe applicable category. Severity is high because an AI agent could inadvertently trigger many paid calls in an automated loop.

From the tool's own definition: "Gapup agent-payable ... x402 per-call — each invocation triggers a financial transaction via the x402 per-call payment protocol"

Risk signals: Accepts URL/endpoint input (selfCompany.url)

## Use case

AI agents use competitor_moves to commit financial operations through Gapup Mcp, usually the final step of a payment, billing, or trading workflow. A call moves real money.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Approval-gated**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Gapup Mcp:

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