AI agents call getAssetOverview to retrieve information from Bybit MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves financial account data (asset overview, equity, balances) without modifying, executing, or moving money. It is a read-only query operation that returns account information. While the data is sensitive (financial account details), the tool itself performs no destructive or reversible action.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Query the total asset overview' - uses query verb and retrieves account equity breakdowns and coin-level details with no modification or execution capability mentioned.

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 getAssetOverview:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"getAssetOverview": {}
}
}getAssetOverview is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
