What intentSwap does on Agentek Eth
AI agents use intentSwap to commit financial operations through Agentek Eth, usually the final step of a payment, billing, or trading workflow. A call moves real money.
Why intentSwap is rated Critical
This tool executes on-chain token swaps, which constitutes a financial transaction. It moves real crypto assets, handles approvals, and commits trades on the Ethereum network. Misuse could result in significant financial loss through unfavorable swaps, manipulation, or directing funds incorrectly. The automatic handling of approvals and execution makes it especially high-risk.
From the tool's definition 'Swap ERC20 or ERC6909 tokens via the zRouter' and 'executes the swap' — moves cryptocurrency assets between tokens on-chain

The rule that runs intentSwap safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Agentek Eth, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For intentSwap, this is the rule to start with:
Any call to intentSwap is blocked until a human approves it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Agentek Eth, apply this rule, and every intentSwap call is checked against it from then on.
