Critical Risk

Why cross_swap needs a policy

This tool moves cryptocurrency assets across different blockchains, which constitutes a financial operation. Cross-chain transfers are irreversible and involve real monetary value. Misuse by an AI agent could result in permanent loss of funds sent to wrong addresses or chains, or unauthorized transfers of crypto assets. Financial is the most severe applicable category given it directly moves tokens/funds.

How to control cross_swap

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Waiaas, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for cross_swap:

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

Any call to cross_swap is blocked until a human approves it. The rest of the server keeps working.

  1. Create a free account and register Waiaas — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
