AI agents use enable_auto_deposit to initiate financial transactions through MERX - TRON Resource Exchange. Financial operations involve real money and are irreversible once processed. Intercept blocks financial tools by default, requiring explicit human approval with transaction-level limits to prevent unauthorised spending.

enable_auto_deposit moves real money. Without a policy, an autonomous agent could initiate transactions that drain accounts or exceed budgets. Intercept blocks financial tools by default, requiring human-in-the-loop approval with configurable spending limits per transaction and per time window.

Financial tools involve real money. Block by default and require explicit human approval before enabling.

What does the enable_auto_deposit tool do? +

Configure automatic top-up when balance drops below a threshold. The configuration lives ONLY in the current MCP session — it is held in memory by the MCP server process and is lost on server restart, MCP client reconnect, or server redeploy. Top-ups are signed locally with TRON_PRIVATE_KEY and sent to your Merx deposit address (memo-routed). For persistent auto-deposit you currently need to call this tool again at the start of each session.. It is categorised as a Financial tool in the MERX - TRON Resource Exchange MCP Server, which means it involves financial transactions. Block by default and require explicit approval.

How do I enforce a policy on enable_auto_deposit? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for enable_auto_deposit. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the MERX - TRON Resource Exchange MCP server.

What risk level is enable_auto_deposit? +

enable_auto_deposit is a Financial tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.

Can I rate-limit enable_auto_deposit? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the enable_auto_deposit rule in your Intercept 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 enable_auto_deposit completely? +

Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for enable_auto_deposit. 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 enable_auto_deposit? +

enable_auto_deposit is provided by the MERX - TRON Resource Exchange MCP server (merx-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
