What prepare_tron_vote does on VaultPilot MCP
AI agents invoke prepare_tron_vote to trigger actions in VaultPilot MCP. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
from | string | Yes | Base58 TRON owner address (prefix T). |
votes | array | Yes | Full vote allocation. VoteWitness REPLACES all prior votes atomically — pass every SR you intend to back, not just the delta. An empty array clears all votes. S |

Why prepare_tron_vote is rated High
This tool constructs a blockchain transaction that atomically replaces the wallet's entire vote allocation on the TRON network. While it produces an unsigned transaction (requiring a subsequent signing step), it triggers an external blockchain operation with significant consequences: it irreversibly replaces all prior votes (an empty array clears everything), affects staking rewards, and interacts with DeFi…

The rule that runs prepare_tron_vote safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and VaultPilot MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For prepare_tron_vote, this is the rule to start with:
prepare_tron_vote stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect VaultPilot MCP, apply this rule, and every prepare_tron_vote call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about prepare_tron_vote
Build an unsigned TRON VoteWitnessContract transaction — casts votes for Super Representatives to earn voting rewards on frozen TRX. IMPORTANT: VoteWitness REPLACES the wallet's entire prior vote allocation atomically. Pass every SR you intend to back (not just a delta); an empty votes array clears all votes. Sum of count values must not exceed the wallet's available TRON Power — check list_tron_witnesses(address) → availableVotes first. count is an integer (1 vote = 1 TRX of TRON Power). Rewards accrue per block and are harvested via prepare_tron_claim_rewards (24h cooldown). Returns a preview + opaque handle; forward via send_transaction for USB-HID signing on the paired Ledger. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the VaultPilot MCP MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
prepare_tron_vote accepts 2 parameters: from, votes. Required: from, votes. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the VaultPilot MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for prepare_tron_vote: 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 VaultPilot MCP. Nothing to install.
prepare_tron_vote is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the prepare_tron_vote 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 prepare_tron_vote. 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.
prepare_tron_vote is provided by the VaultPilot MCP server (vaultpilot-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
