Send BEP-20 tokens (USDT, BUSD, or any BEP-20) to an address on BNB Chain

How to control bnb_transfer ↓

AI agents use bnb_transfer to commit financial operations through Agenti — usually the final step of a payment, billing, or trading workflow. A call moves real money.

Critical Risk

This tool irreversibly moves cryptocurrency on behalf of the AI agent. Even with correct arguments, it commits financial transactions that cannot be easily undone. The ability to send any BEP-20 token to arbitrary addresses creates extreme risk if the agent is manipulated into sending funds to wrong recipients or excessive amounts. This is the most severe financial operation and warrants critical severity.

From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Send BEP-20 tokens (USDT, BUSD, or any BEP-20) to an address on BNB Chain' - this directly transfers cryptocurrency/tokens, which constitutes moving money and committing financial obligations.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access bnb_transfer gives an agent:

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 bnb_transfer:

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

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

  1. Create a free account and register Agenti — 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.
