Why hydra_swap_status needs a policy

This tool performs a read-only lookup of swap execution status. It retrieves state information about an existing swap transaction identified by a deposit address. There are no side effects, no code execution, no data modification, and no financial operations initiated by this tool itself. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only learn status information already committed to the blockchain.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'hydra_swap_status' and description 'Check the execution status of a 1Click swap by its deposit address' indicate a query operation that retrieves status information without modifying or executing transactions.

How to control hydra_swap_status

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

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

hydra_swap_status 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 Near Hydra — 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.
