Questions about metaplex-nft_delegateAuthority
Delegate a specific authority (update, mint, freeze, collection) to another wallet. SAP MCP context: Protocol metaplex-nft; operation class write. Use for Metaplex NFT collection, mint, metadata, royalty, creator verification, collection verification, and authority workflows. Confirm metadata URI, collection mint, creators, royalties, update authority, and ownership before writes. For agent identity, plan with sap_agent_identity_plan, register the SAP on-chain profile through sap_payments_register_agent, then use agentUri or metadataUri to point at off-chain or NFT-backed metadata. Use these Metaplex tools when the agent also needs an NFT collection, badge, or verifiable media asset. SAP MCP execution guidance: Intent: SAP MCP tool workflow. Pricing: paid read-premium; estimate first, then use sap_payments_call_paid_tool when the runtime cannot replay x402 natively. Routing: hosted accountless write is blocked; do not call this as a paid hosted write and no x402 payment should be charged. Use the local sap_payments bridge or a hosted unsigned builder when user signing is required. Signer boundary: user-controlled local profile or external signer; OOBE hosted MCP remains non-custodial. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Sap MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
