Delegate voting power to an address (or self to activate)
AI agents use delegate_votes to create or update resources in Sperax Ecosystem Crypto & DeFI MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Sperax Ecosystem Crypto & DeFI MCP Server environment.
Delegating voting power modifies on-chain governance state by assigning one's votes to another address. This is a reversible write operation (delegation can be changed or revoked), not financial, destructive, or execute in nature. Misuse could redirect governance influence but does not move funds directly.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access delegate_votes gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Sperax Ecosystem Crypto & DeFI MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for delegate_votes:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"delegate_votes": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "delegate_votes_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
} delegate_votes 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.

Delegate voting power to an address (or self to activate). It is categorised as a Write tool in the Sperax Ecosystem Crypto & DeFI MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Sperax Ecosystem Crypto & DeFI MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delegate_votes: 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 Sperax Ecosystem Crypto & DeFI MCP Server. Nothing to install.
delegate_votes is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the delegate_votes 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 delegate_votes. 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.
delegate_votes is provided by the Sperax Ecosystem Crypto & DeFI MCP Server MCP server (sperax/sperax-crypto-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Sperax Ecosystem Crypto & DeFI MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
