Why Controller-searchVerifiedContracts needs a policy

This tool queries and retrieves publicly available blockchain contract metadata (name, address, language) without creating, modifying, deleting, executing code, or moving funds. It is a straightforward read operation with minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent—worst case being unnecessary API calls or exposure of already-public contract information.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it "Search[es] for verified smart contracts by query string" and "Returns contract name, address hash, and programming language." The verb "search" combined with "returns" indicates data retrieval with no modification.

How to control Controller-searchVerifiedContracts

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "Controller-searchVerifiedContracts": {}
  }
}

  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
