getPoolTransactions

Get recent transactions for a specific pool. Shows swaps, adds, removes. Requires network and pool address.

How to control getPoolTransactions ↓

AI agents call getPoolTransactions to retrieve information from BNB Chain MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

This tool retrieves historical transaction data from a pool without modifying, executing, or deleting anything. It is a query operation that returns information about past swaps and liquidity events. While it operates in a financial domain (DEX pools), it performs no financial action itself—merely reading existing transaction records. This is categorically a Read operation with low severity.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get recent transactions for a specific pool. Shows swaps, adds, removes.' The verb 'Get' and the read-only nature of querying transaction history with 'Requires network and pool address' as parameters indicate data retrieval with no…

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access getPoolTransactions 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 getPoolTransactions:

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

getPoolTransactions 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.
