WHAT IT DOES

What sec_edgar_search does on ScorpTech x402 API

AI agents call sec_edgar_search to retrieve information from ScorpTech x402 API without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`q`	string	—	Full-text search phrase (EDGAR FTS, quotes for exact phrase), e.g. "share repurchase"
`to`	string	—	Latest filing date YYYY-MM-DD
`from`	string	—	Earliest filing date YYYY-MM-DD
`forms`	string	—	Comma-separated form types, e.g. 10-K,10-Q,8-K,S-1,DEF 14A, or "all". Default 10-K,10-Q,8-K for company mode, all for full-text.
`limit`	integer	—	Max filings (1-100, default 10)
`company`	string	—	Company name, ticker (AAPL, BRK-B) or CIK (320193). Required unless q is given.

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why sec_edgar_search is rated Low

Even though sec_edgar_search only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs sec_edgar_search safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and ScorpTech x402 API, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For sec_edgar_search, this is the rule to start with:

sec_edgar_search Allowed

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