Register multiple ENS names in bulk — batched into just 2 transactions (commit + register) via Multicall3. Much cheaper and faster than registering names one at a time. Supports up to 20 names per batch. Flow: batchCommit (1 tx) → wait 60 seconds → batchRegister (1 tx with total ETH). Excess ET...

namewhisper/ens-tools Write Risk 3/5

AI agents use bulk_register to create or modify resources in Name Whisper. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call bulk_register repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. Intercept's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Name Whisper.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

What does the bulk_register tool do? +

Register multiple ENS names in bulk — batched into just 2 transactions (commit + register) via Multicall3. Much cheaper and faster than registering names one at a time. Supports up to 20 names per batch. Flow: batchCommit (1 tx) → wait 60 seconds → batchRegister (1 tx with total ETH). Excess ETH is refunded. Each name gets its own secret for front-running protection. All names must be available for registration. After registration, use bulk_set_records to configure all names at once with addresses, text records, and content hashes.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Name Whisper MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on bulk_register? +

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

What risk level is bulk_register? +

bulk_register is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit bulk_register? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the bulk_register 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 bulk_register completely? +

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

bulk_register is provided by the Name Whisper MCP server (namewhisper/ens-tools). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
