Local agent spend-policy checks. No funds, keys, payment authority, or network access.
Install
Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).

DingDawg Agent Spend Policy MCP
A small, local MCP server that deterministically evaluates whether a proposed agent spend action matches a supplied policy.
It returns one of ELIGIBLE, DENY, or STEP_UP, with a stable reason code.
ELIGIBLE is local policy evidence only. It is not payment authorization.
Safety boundary
This package does not hold funds, private keys, payment credentials, customer data, or settlement authority. It does not sign, send, settle, custody, or record payments. It makes no network requests.
A production payment adapter needs separate, independently verified controls for authenticated policy/action provenance, canonical payload hashing, durable atomic budget reservation and replay protection, customer-controlled signing, rail validation, and settlement reconciliation.
Install
npx -y @dingdawg/agent-spend-policy-mcp
Configure it as a local stdio MCP server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"dingdawg-agent-spend-policy": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@dingdawg/agent-spend-policy-mcp"]
}
}
}
Tool
evaluate_spend_policy accepts an evaluation time, a policy, a proposed action,
and the already-spent amount. All money is passed as integer micro-unit strings,
never JavaScript floating-point numbers.
The caller supplies the clock and already-spent value; therefore this tool is safe for dry runs and local evidence, not a replacement for a trusted payment or accounting system.
Agent contract
The versioned machine-readable contract is
capabilities.json. It describes the only tool this
package exposes, its required inputs, its three possible outcomes, and its
non-negotiable safety boundary.
- Transport: local stdio MCP
- Tool:
evaluate_spend_policy - Required inputs:
evaluationTime,policy,action, andalreadySpentMicros - Outputs:
ELIGIBLE,DENY, orSTEP_UP, each with a stable reason code - Side effects: none
- Credentials, payment execution, custody, signing, settlement, and network access: not supported
The manifest is package-source evidence for this release, not a promise of a
hosted agent-discovery endpoint. ELIGIBLE remains local policy evidence only,
not payment authorization.
