## MCP tools (17)

### `ep_guard_action` (~260 tokens)

REQUIRED before any irreversible action: payments, wire transfers, fund releases, deletions, record or account changes, or sending messages with real-world effect. Submits the exact action for policy evaluation and human authorization. Returns APPROVED with a receipt the action may proceed under, or BLOCKED with a receipt_id + signoff_id while a named human reviews. Do NOT execute the action without an APPROVED result — if BLOCKED, poll ep_check_signoff with the receipt_id.

Input parameters:

- `action_type` (string, required): Kind of action, e.g. "large_payment_release", "vendor_bank_account_change", "ai_agent_payment_action".
- `amount` (number): Amount, for payments/releases.
- `currency` (string): ISO currency code, e.g. "USD".
- `destination` (string): Where funds or data are going (account, address).
- `organization_id` (string, required): The organization this action belongs to.
- `risk_flags` (array): Optional risk signals, e.g. ["new_destination","after_hours"].
- `summary` (string): One-line, human-readable description the approver will see.
- `target_resource_id` (string, required): What is being acted on — an invoice id, account id, or record id.

### `ep_check_signoff` (~73 tokens)

Poll a pending authorization after ep_guard_action returns BLOCKED. Pass the receipt_id. Returns PENDING, APPROVED (the action may now proceed), or DENIED (with reason). Safe to call repeatedly until a decision is reached.

Input parameters:

- `receipt_id` (string, required): The receipt_id returned by ep_guard_action.

### `ep_verify_receipt` (~83 tokens)

Verify a trust receipt — its signature and Merkle inclusion against the anchored root. Read-only. Returns valid/invalid plus the verified claim (action, approver, outcome) and anchor status; use it to independently confirm a receipt was issued by EP and has not been tampered with.

Input parameters:

- `receipt_id` (string, required): Receipt ID (ep_rcpt_...)

### `ep_install_preflight` (~161 tokens)

BEFORE installing or enabling third-party software an agent depends on — an npm package, GitHub app, browser extension, or MCP server — check it here. Evaluates the software against a fit-for-purpose trust policy and returns allow / review / deny with reasons covering publisher, requested permissions, provenance, and trust history.

Input parameters:

- `context` (object): Install context: { host, install_scope, permission_class, data_sensitivity, execution_mode }
- `entity_id` (string, required): Software entity ID (e.g. github_app:acme/code-helper)
- `policy` (string): Software policy: github_private_repo_safe_v1, npm_buildtime_safe_v1, browser_extension_safe_v1, mcp_server_safe_v1, or standard EP policies

### `ep_list_policies` (~30 tokens)

List all available trust policies with their requirements and families. Use to discover which policy to evaluate against.

### `ep_create_delegation` (~201 tokens)

Create a delegation record. WRITE: persists to the EP ledger that a human or principal authorizes an agent to act on their behalf, with scope, expiry, and optional constraints. Requires auth. Returns a delegation_id that later actions reference (via ep_verify_delegation) to prove authorization. Use when a principal grants an agent standing authority for a bounded set of actions.

Input parameters:

- `agent_entity_id` (string, required): The agent entity being authorized
- `constraints` (object): Additional constraints (geo, merchant_category, etc.)
- `expires_at` (string): ISO8601 expiry timestamp. If omitted, defaults to 24 hours.
- `max_value_usd` (number): Maximum transaction value in USD this delegation authorizes (optional)
- `principal_id` (string, required): The principal (human/org) granting the delegation
- `scope` (array, required): List of permitted action types (e.g. ["purchase", "book", "send_email"])

### `ep_verify_delegation` (~92 tokens)

Verify that an agent currently holds a valid delegation from a principal for a specific action. Use this before accepting a task from an agent claiming to act on behalf of a human. Returns: valid/expired/not_found with scope details.

Input parameters:

- `action_type` (string): The action type to check (must be in delegation scope)
- `delegation_id` (string, required): Delegation ID (ep_dlg_...)

### `ep_issue_commit` (~193 tokens)

Issue a signed EP Commit before a high-stakes action. Returns a commit_id, decision (allow/deny/review), expiry, scope, and appeal path. The commit binds the agent to a specific action type, entity, and policy before execution.

Input parameters:

- `action_type` (string, required): Action type: install, connect, delegate, transact
- `context` (object): Additional context metadata (optional)
- `counterparty_entity_id` (string): Counterparty entity ID (optional)
- `delegation_id` (string): Delegation ID if acting under delegation (optional)
- `entity_id` (string, required): Entity requesting the commit
- `max_value_usd` (number): Maximum value in USD (optional)
- `policy` (string): Trust policy to enforce (default: standard)
- `principal_id` (string): Principal authorizing the action (optional)
- `scope` (array): Action scope list (optional)

### `ep_verify_commit` (~76 tokens)

Verify a pre-action commit — read-only, no side effects. Checks its signature, status, and validity and returns valid/invalid plus the current status, decision, and expiry. Use before relying on or consuming a commit to confirm it is genuine and still active.

Input parameters:

- `commit_id` (string, required): Commit ID (epc_...)

### `ep_get_commit_status` (~71 tokens)

Get the current state of a pre-action commit by id. Read-only. Returns one of active, revoked, expired, or fulfilled, plus the bound action hash and expiry — poll this to learn whether a commit may still be consumed.

Input parameters:

- `commit_id` (string, required): Commit ID (epc_...)

### `ep_revoke_commit` (~93 tokens)

Revoke an active pre-action commit before it is fulfilled or expires. SIDE EFFECT: terminally cancels the commit — it can never be consumed after this, and the change is irreversible. Requires auth. Returns the revoked status; use when a pending action should be called off.

Input parameters:

- `commit_id` (string, required): Commit ID to revoke (epc_...)
- `reason` (string, required): Reason for revocation

### `ep_bind_receipt_to_commit` (~76 tokens)

Bind a post-action receipt to a commit, completing the commit-execute-receipt cycle. Links the behavioral outcome back to the signed authorization token.

Input parameters:

- `commit_id` (string, required): Commit ID to bind to (epc_...)
- `receipt_id` (string, required): Receipt ID to bind (ep_rcpt_...)

### `ep_initiate_handshake` (~131 tokens)

Initiate an EP Handshake — a structured identity exchange between parties. The handshake coordinates mutual presentation of identity proofs before a trust decision. Requires at least 2 parties and a governing trust policy.

Input parameters:

- `binding` (object): Optional binding constraints
- `interaction_id` (string): Optional external interaction reference
- `mode` (string, required): Handshake mode: "mutual", "one-way", "delegated"
- `parties` (array, required): Parties in the handshake (min 2). Each: { entity_ref, role }
- `policy_id` (string, required): Trust policy governing the handshake

### `ep_add_presentation` (~173 tokens)

Add an identity presentation (proof) to an active handshake. WRITE: appends the party's identity claims to the handshake for evaluation against its policy; supports full, selective, or zero-knowledge disclosure. Requires auth. Returns the updated presentation count and handshake state. Call after ep_initiate_handshake and before ep_verify_handshake.

Input parameters:

- `claims` (object, required): Identity claims being presented
- `disclosure_mode` (string): Disclosure mode: "full", "selective", "zk"
- `handshake_id` (string, required): Handshake ID to present to
- `issuer_ref` (string): Optional credential issuer reference
- `party_role` (string, required): Role of the presenting party
- `presentation_type` (string, required): Type: "verifiable_credential", "ep_trust_profile", "attestation"

### `ep_verify_handshake` (~82 tokens)

Evaluate all presentations in a handshake against its governing policy — read-only, no mutation. Returns accepted (all requirements met), rejected (policy violations), or partial (awaiting presentations), each with reason_codes explaining the outcome. Call after the parties have added their presentations to decide whether the handshake clears.

Input parameters:

- `handshake_id` (string, required): Handshake ID to verify

### `ep_get_handshake` (~51 tokens)

Get the full state of a handshake including parties, presentations, binding, and result. Use this to check handshake progress or review completed exchanges.

Input parameters:

- `handshake_id` (string, required): Handshake ID to retrieve

### `ep_revoke_handshake` (~61 tokens)

Revoke an active handshake. Only parties to the handshake may revoke it. Revocation is terminal — the handshake cannot be reopened.

Input parameters:

- `handshake_id` (string, required): Handshake ID to revoke
- `reason` (string, required): Reason for revocation
