domain_register

THE RISK

Critical Risk

Registering a domain involves a financial transaction (purchasing a domain registration, typically an annual fee). This commits a financial obligation on behalf of the user/organization. Domain registration is a paid service and cannot be considered merely a write operation — it incurs real monetary cost.

HOW TO CONTROL DOMAIN_REGISTER

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

policy.json

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

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