AI agents call get_positions to retrieve information from Mcp Binance Futures without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves account position data without modifying state, executing code, deleting data, or moving funds. While the parent server manages financial operations, this specific tool only reads position information. An AI agent misusing this tool could only gain unauthorized visibility into positions, not execute unauthorized trades or movements of funds.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_positions' and description 'Get current open positions (non-zero size)' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_positions gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Binance Futures, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_positions:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_positions": {}
}
}get_positions is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get current open positions (non-zero size). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcp Binance Futures MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Mcp Binance Futures MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_positions: 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 Mcp Binance Futures. Nothing to install.
get_positions 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 get_positions 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 get_positions. 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.
get_positions is provided by the Mcp Binance Futures MCP server (muvon/mcp-binance-futures). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
