Why get_address needs a policy

This tool retrieves address information, which is a read-only operation with no side effects. Even in a financial context (crypto wallet), merely obtaining an address does not constitute a write, execute, destructive, or financial transaction. The empty description lowers confidence slightly, but the 'get_' prefix and address retrieval purpose are standard indicators of a read operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_address' indicates retrieval of a wallet address with no description provided. In the context of a wallet MCP server, 'get' prefix is characteristically a read operation that queries and returns data without modification.

How to control get_address

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 get_address:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_address": {}
  }
}

get_address is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  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.
