checklist_step_receipt
Completes ONE step of a checklist/SOP run and returns its OCG v0.4 step receipt: execution_hash chains to prev_step_receipt_digest (pass the previous step's execution_hash, or omit for step 0). A blocking-gate step with evidence_requirement != "none" and no evidence supplied is refused (the calle...

What checklist_step_receipt does on Ainumbers Mcp Apps
AI agents invoke checklist_step_receipt to trigger actions in Ainumbers Mcp Apps. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
step | object | Yes | The step object from the definition's steps[] array being completed. |
evidence | object | — | Evidence payload, e.g. { text_digest }, { file_sha256 }, or { attestation_digest }. Required unless evidence_requirement is "none". |
timestamp | string | Yes | ISO 8601 completion timestamp (caller-supplied for determinism). |
step_index | integer | Yes | Zero-based index of this step in the definition. |
completer_key | string | — | Identifier of who/what completed the step (e.g. an agent id). Never real PII. |
definition_digest | string | Yes | The definition_digest from checklist_validate_definition. |
prev_step_receipt_digest | string | — | execution_hash of the previous step's receipt. Omit for the first step in the run. |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why checklist_step_receipt is rated High
Although the server claims 'read-only' and 'zero PII', this tool's function—executing and recording deterministic procedural steps in a compliance/fintech workflow—constitutes an Execute category action. It performs side effects (state recording via receipts, digest chain updates, blocking-gate logic) triggered by caller arguments.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Completes ONE step of a checklist/SOP run' and 'returns its OCG v0.4 step receipt' with execution tracking via digest chaining.

The rule that runs checklist_step_receipt safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Ainumbers Mcp Apps, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For checklist_step_receipt, this is the rule to start with:
checklist_step_receipt stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Ainumbers Mcp Apps, apply this rule, and every checklist_step_receipt call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about checklist_step_receipt
Completes ONE step of a checklist/SOP run and returns its OCG v0.4 step receipt: execution_hash chains to prev_step_receipt_digest (pass the previous step's execution_hash, or omit for step 0). A blocking-gate step with evidence_requirement != "none" and no evidence supplied is refused (the caller enforces step order; this tool enforces the evidence requirement per step). Call once per step in order, then pass the full ordered list of returned receipts to checklist_verify_run to check the chain and mint the run receipt. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Ainumbers Mcp Apps MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
checklist_step_receipt accepts 7 parameters: step, evidence, timestamp, step_index, completer_key, definition_digest, prev_step_receipt_digest. Required: step, timestamp, step_index, definition_digest. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Ainumbers Mcp Apps MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for checklist_step_receipt: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Ainumbers Mcp Apps. Nothing to install.
checklist_step_receipt is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the checklist_step_receipt rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for checklist_step_receipt. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
checklist_step_receipt is provided by the Ainumbers Mcp Apps MCP server (postoaklabs/ainumbers-mcp-apps). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
