Gets stock quote using Robinhood's internal instrument ID.
AI agents call stock_quote_by_id 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 publicly available or account-specific stock pricing data without side effects. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute trades. Even in the context of a trading-capable server, this specific tool is limited to querying stock quotes, making it a Read operation with minimal risk.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'stock_quote_by_id' and description 'Gets stock quote' indicate a retrieval operation. No language suggesting modification, deletion, or execution of trades (e.g., no 'buy', 'sell', 'execute', 'delete', 'update').

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