Why get_spread needs a policy

get_spread retrieves and queries live cryptocurrency pricing information without modifying data, executing operations, or committing financial transactions. It provides analytical data to inform decision-making but does not itself execute trades or moves funds. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—at worst, an agent receives incorrect market data for analysis.

From the tool's definition Tool returns 'real-time price spread' and profitability data with no side effects described. The action is purely informational retrieval ('Returns gross%, net% after fees, best route, and profitability verdict').

How to control get_spread

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and LogicRoomX Crypto MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_spread:

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

get_spread 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 LogicRoomX Crypto MCP — 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.
