Why mpt-issuance-create needs a policy

This tool creates new cryptographic assets (MPT tokens) on the XRP Ledger. While creation is reversible in principle (tokens can be destroyed), the act of issuing tokens represents a significant Write operation with high severity due to potential financial implications (tokens have economic value), the permanent record on the ledger, and the risk of unauthorized token creation.

From the tool's definition Tool description states: 'Create a new Multi-Purpose Token (MPT) issuance on the XRP Ledger.' The verb 'create' indicates data creation.

POLICY

How to control mpt-issuance-create

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Xrpl mcp, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for mpt-issuance-create:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "mpt-issuance-create": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "mpt-issuance-create_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

mpt-issuance-create stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register Xrpl mcp — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

Create a new Multi-Purpose Token (MPT) issuance on the XRP Ledger. MPTs are optimized fungible tokens for use cases like stablecoins. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Xrpl mcp MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on mpt-issuance-create? +

Register the Xrpl MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for mpt-issuance-create: 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 Xrpl mcp. Nothing to install.

What risk level is mpt-issuance-create? +

mpt-issuance-create is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit mpt-issuance-create? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the mpt-issuance-create 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.

How do I block mpt-issuance-create completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for mpt-issuance-create. 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.

What MCP server provides mpt-issuance-create? +

mpt-issuance-create is provided by the Xrpl MCP server (romthpt/mcp-xrpl). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Xrpl mcp tool call.

Start from Xrpl mcp, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
