Why set_ens_records needs a policy

This tool modifies blockchain state by updating ENS records. While reversible (records can be updated again), it affects critical domain infrastructure and could redirect traffic or change ownership mappings if misused by an agent. It's Write rather than Execute because the primary action is data modification rather than arbitrary code execution.

From the tool's definition Tool performs 'Set records for an ENS name' which modifies ENS domain records. This is a state-changing operation that creates or updates blockchain records (address, text records, contenthash) associated with a domain name.

How to control set_ens_records

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 set_ens_records:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "set_ens_records": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "set_ens_records_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

set_ens_records 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.
