What querySubMembers does on Bybit MCP Server

AI agents call querySubMembers 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.

Low Risk

Why querySubMembers needs a policy

This tool retrieves information about sub-accounts without creating, modifying, or deleting data, and without executing financial transactions. It is a pure read operation. Severity is medium rather than low because sub-account information could reveal account structure and holdings to an unauthorized party if credentials are compromised, presenting meaningful risk if misused by a compromised AI agent.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'querySubMembers' and description 'Get a complete list of all sub-accounts under the master account' indicate data retrieval with no modification or execution of trades/operations.

How to control querySubMembers

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 querySubMembers:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "querySubMembers": {}
  }
}

querySubMembers is read-only, so it stays allowed — but 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.
