Why intentGovernorVoteWithReason needs a policy

This tool submits an on-chain transaction to cast a governance vote, which triggers an external blockchain operation with real consequences (influencing governance outcomes). It is not purely destructive or financial, but it executes an irreversible on-chain action. Misuse could influence protocol governance decisions, making the blast radius high.

How to control intentGovernorVoteWithReason

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "intentGovernorVoteWithReason": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "intentgovernorvotewithreason_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

intentGovernorVoteWithReason stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Agentek Eth — 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.
