Check if a token transfer complies with registered compliance rules.
AI agents call check_compliance to retrieve information from Tenzro Ledger MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This is a read operation that checks compliance status of a hypothetical transfer against registered rules. It does not execute the transfer itself, does not delete data, does not move funds, and does not trigger external operations—it only queries and returns compliance information. The operation is non-destructive and has no side effects on actual assets or data.
From the tool's definition The tool name 'check_compliance' and description 'Check if a token transfer complies with registered compliance rules' indicate a query/validation operation that retrieves compliance status without modifying state or executing transfers.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Check if a token transfer complies with registered compliance rules. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Tenzro Ledger MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Tenzro Ledger MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for check_compliance: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Tenzro Ledger MCP. Nothing to install.
check_compliance is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the check_compliance rule in your PolicyLayer 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for check_compliance. 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.
check_compliance is provided by the Tenzro Ledger MCP server (https://canton-mcp.tenzro.network/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
