What compute_settle_epoch does on Tenzro Ledger MCP
AI agents use compute_settle_epoch to commit financial operations through Tenzro Ledger MCP, usually the final step of a payment, billing, or trading workflow. A call moves real money.
Why compute_settle_epoch is rated Critical
Settling an epoch of a compute rental is a financial operation that likely moves funds or commits payment for services rendered. The presence of 'availability proof' gating suggests a verified financial settlement mechanism.
From the tool's definition 'Settle one epoch of an active compute rental' — settling a rental epoch involves committing a financial obligation or payment for compute resources consumed.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs compute_settle_epoch safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Tenzro Ledger MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For compute_settle_epoch, this is the rule to start with:
Any call to compute_settle_epoch is blocked until a human approves it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Tenzro Ledger MCP, apply this rule, and every compute_settle_epoch call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about compute_settle_epoch
Settle one epoch of an active compute rental, gated on the availability proof. It is categorised as a Financial tool in the Tenzro Ledger MCP MCP Server, which means it involves financial transactions. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Tenzro Ledger MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for compute_settle_epoch: 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.
compute_settle_epoch is a Financial tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the compute_settle_epoch 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 compute_settle_epoch. 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.
compute_settle_epoch 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.
