Why createCopyTradeBind needs a policy

This tool creates/establishes a new copy trading binding, which is a Write operation (creates data/configuration). The severity is high because establishing a copy trading binding can expose the user to significant financial exposure—the binding enables another trader's actions to be replicated automatically on the user's account, potentially resulting in substantial losses if the followed trader performs poorly.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'createCopyTradeBind' and description 'Create a new Copy Trading Classic follow binding' indicate creation of a new binding/relationship.

How to control createCopyTradeBind

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Bybit MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for createCopyTradeBind:

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

createCopyTradeBind 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.

  1. Create a free account and register Bybit MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
