What quote does on Waiaas

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

Why quote needs a policy

This tool only queries bridge quote data (fees, limits, fill time estimates) and returns information. It has no side effects, does not move funds, does not execute bridge operations, and does not modify any state. Despite existing on a financial wallet server alongside tools that perform actual transfers and swaps, this specific tool is purely informational/read-only.

From the tool's definition Tool is named 'quote' and described as 'Get Across bridge quote with fees, limits, and estimated fill time' — it retrieves and returns information about bridge quotes without modifying state or executing transactions.

How to control quote

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 quote:

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

quote 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.
