Why configure_credentials needs a policy

This tool writes/modifies credential configuration for a payment gateway. While it doesn't directly move money, misconfigured credentials could redirect payments, enable fraud, or disable payment processing entirely. It's a Write operation with high severity due to the financial system context and potential for misuse (e.g., replacing legitimate credentials with attacker-controlled ones).

How to control configure_credentials

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Satim Payment Gateway Integration, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for configure_credentials:

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

configure_credentials 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.
