This tool only reads and returns the wallet address of the currently configured wallet. It has no side effects, does not execute any operations, does not create or modify data, and does not involve financial transactions.

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

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

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

get_wallet_address 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 BNB Chain MCP — 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.
