agenti_receive

THE RISK

Critical Risk

This tool initiates a financial transaction by creating a payment invoice for receiving cryptocurrency funds. While receiving funds is less risky than sending, it still constitutes a financial operation that could be misused (e.g., soliciting payments from unintended parties, creating fraudulent invoices). Financial category takes precedence over all others per the severity hierarchy.

From the tool's definition "Create a payment invoice so another party can send funds to this agent" — directly involves cryptocurrency financial transactions; server description explicitly states 'hold, spend, earn, and receive cryptocurrency'

HOW TO CONTROL AGENTI_RECEIVE

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "agenti_receive": {
      "deny_if": [
        {
          "conditions": [],
          "on_deny": "Requires human approval."
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Any call to agenti_receive is blocked until a human approves it. The rest of the server keeps working.

Create a free account and register Agenti — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
