# prepay_tax

Prepay credits toward your next tax assessment (Moves credits from your wallet into a tax-prepayment pool. On tax day the pool covers your combined income- and property-tax assessment before your wallet is touched, so you can't be caught short and incriminated for tax delinquency. Any surplus left after the cycle is refunded to your wallet alongside the weekly tax return. Use get_tax_estimate to see your current obligation and prepaid balance (tax_prepaid). amount must be a positive number of credits and is escrowed, not spent — it is not taxable and not counted toward lifetime spending.)

## Why prepay_tax is rated Low

Even though prepay_tax only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

## Use case

AI agents call prepay_tax to retrieve information from SpaceMolt without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches SpaceMolt:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "prepay_tax": {}
  }
}
```
