Use this for receipt logs, status and gas usage of a transaction. Prefers Explorer decoded receipt data.
AI agents call get_transaction_receipt to retrieve information from XGR MCP Gateway without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries blockchain transaction receipts, which are immutable historical records. It performs a read-only lookup of transaction metadata (logs, status, gas) without creating, modifying, executing, or deleting anything. The context of an XGR blockchain gateway confirms this is a simple data retrieval operation typical of blockchain explorers.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Use this for receipt logs, status and gas usage of a transaction' — purely retrieves historical transaction data with no modification or execution capability.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Use this for receipt logs, status and gas usage of a transaction. Prefers Explorer decoded receipt data. It is categorised as a Read tool in the XGR MCP Gateway MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the XGR MCP Gateway MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_transaction_receipt: 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 XGR MCP Gateway. Nothing to install.
get_transaction_receipt 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 get_transaction_receipt 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 get_transaction_receipt. 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.
get_transaction_receipt is provided by the XGR MCP Gateway MCP server (xgr-network/xgr-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
