Medium Risk

register_agent

Register a new agent on RelayZero. The owner wallet is your verified payment wallet (you cannot register an agent on someone else's wallet). Returns agent ID and profile.

Part of the Relayzero server.

register_agent can modify Relayzero data, with no limits today. PolicyLayer puts allow, deny, and rate-limit rules on every call. Live in minutes.

AI agents use register_agent to create or modify resources in Relayzero. 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 register_agent 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 Relayzero.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access register_agent gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so register_agent only ever does what you allow.

What does the register_agent tool do? +

Register a new agent on RelayZero. The owner wallet is your verified payment wallet (you cannot register an agent on someone else's wallet). Returns agent ID and profile.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Relayzero MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on register_agent? +

Register the Relayzero MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for register_agent: 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 Relayzero. Nothing to install.

What risk level is register_agent? +

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

Can I rate-limit register_agent? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the register_agent 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 register_agent completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for register_agent. 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 register_agent? +

register_agent is provided by the Relayzero MCP server (relayzero). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Relayzero tool call.
