WHAT IT DOES

What stock_quote_batch does on Livedatalink

AI agents call stock_quote_batch to retrieve information from Livedatalink 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
`symbols`	object	Yes	Ticker symbols, max 10. Accept either CSV string ("AAPL,MSFT,GOOGL") or array (["AAPL","MSFT","GOOGL"]).

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why stock_quote_batch is rated Low

Even though stock_quote_batch 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 stock_quote_batch safely

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

stock_quote_batch Allowed

stock_quote_batch 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": {
    "stock_quote_batch": {}
  }
}

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

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