WHAT IT DOES

What queryAPIKey does on Bybit MCP Server

AI agents call queryAPIKey to retrieve information from Bybit MCP Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why queryAPIKey is rated Low

This tool falls clearly into the Read category as it performs data retrieval without side effects. While API key information could be considered sensitive from a confidentiality perspective, the tool itself does not create, modify, execute, delete, or move money.

From the tool's definition queryAPIKey retrieves or queries information about an API key without modifying or executing any operations. The verb 'query' and 'retrieve information' indicate a read-only operation.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs queryAPIKey safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Bybit MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For queryAPIKey, this is the rule to start with:

queryAPIKey Allowed

queryAPIKey is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "queryAPIKey": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Bybit MCP Server, apply this rule, and every queryAPIKey call is checked against it from then on.
