What resolveWNS does on Agentek Eth

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

Why resolveWNS needs a policy

This tool performs a lookup/resolution of a Web3 Name Service (WNS) domain to an Ethereum address. It is a read-only query with no side effects, similar to a DNS lookup. Misuse potential is low as it only retrieves address mappings.

How to control resolveWNS

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 resolveWNS:

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

resolveWNS 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 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.
