WHAT IT DOES

What user_profile does on Open Stocks MCP

AI agents call user_profile to retrieve information from Open Stocks MCP without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why user_profile is rated Low

This tool retrieves user profile data without modifying, executing, or affecting financial transactions. While the broader server provides trading capabilities, this specific tool is a simple read operation that queries existing user profile information. The 'Gets' verb and lack of any action language confirm it is informational only.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'user_profile' and description 'Gets comprehensive user profile information' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs user_profile safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Open Stocks MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For user_profile, this is the rule to start with:

user_profile Allowed

user_profile is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "user_profile": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Open Stocks MCP, apply this rule, and every user_profile call is checked against it from then on.
