Convert between human-readable token amounts and smallest-unit values (wei, lamports, satoshis). Use this before calling quote/bridge/swap tools which require amounts in smallest units. Examples: - 1.5 ETH (18 decimals) →
AI agents call convert_amount to retrieve information from Relay MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs a pure mathematical conversion between unit representations of token amounts. It has no side effects, does not interact with any blockchain or external system, and does not read or write any data. It is a local computation utility used to prepare inputs for other tools.

Convert between human-readable token amounts and smallest-unit values (wei, lamports, satoshis). Use this before calling quote/bridge/swap tools which require amounts in smallest units. Examples: - 1.5 ETH (18 decimals) →. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Relay MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Relay MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for convert_amount: 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 Relay MCP Server. Nothing to install.
convert_amount is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the convert_amount 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 convert_amount. 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.
convert_amount is provided by the Relay MCP Server MCP server (relayprotocol/relay-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
