Why account_features needs a policy

This tool retrieves account configuration and feature information without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any financial transactions. Despite being on a trading platform server, the specific operation is limited to querying account metadata, making it a Read action with minimal blast radius if misused by an agent.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'account_features' and description 'Gets comprehensive account features and settings' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or execution of trades. The verb 'Gets' explicitly signals a read-only query.

How to control account_features

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

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

account_features 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 Open Stocks 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.
