Get Schwab account details including balances and positions.
AI agents call schwab_account to retrieve information from Open Stocks MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves account information (balances and positions) from Schwab without creating, modifying, executing, or deleting anything. It is a read-only query operation. Severity is low because unauthorized account viewing, while a privacy concern, does not directly enable financial harm, account takeover, or data destruction—it is information exposure only.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'schwab_account' and description 'Get Schwab account details including balances and positions' indicate data retrieval with no modification or execution capabilities.

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 schwab_account:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"schwab_account": {}
}
}schwab_account is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
