Query universal transfer records.

AI agents call universalTransferListQuery 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 performs read-only operations on transfer history records. It retrieves and queries existing data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. The capability to filter by account type and time range does not change its fundamental read-only nature.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'Query' and description states 'Query universal transfer records' with no mention of modifications, deletions, or execution. The tool retrieves historical transfer data with filtering capabilities.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access universalTransferListQuery gives an agent:
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 universalTransferListQuery:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"universalTransferListQuery": {}
}
}universalTransferListQuery is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

It is categorised as a Read tool in the Bybit MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Bybit MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for universalTransferListQuery: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Bybit MCP Server. Nothing to install.
universalTransferListQuery is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the universalTransferListQuery rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for universalTransferListQuery. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
universalTransferListQuery is provided by the Bybit MCP Server MCP server (bybit-exchange/trading-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Bybit MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
