This tool queries and returns industry classification data without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward data retrieval function with no destructive, financial, or code execution capabilities. The severity is low because misuse would only expose publicly available market classification information.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and VNStock Agent MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for listing_industries:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"listing_industries": {}
}
} listing_industries is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
