Why create_project needs a policy

This tool creates a new project resource. Creation is a write operation that modifies system state by adding a new entity. It is reversible (the project can be deleted or modified later), so it does not qualify as Destructive.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'create_project' with description 'Create a new project with the provided configuration' — the verb 'Create' indicates data creation, a reversible write operation.

How to control create_project

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "create_project": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "create_project_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

create_project stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register eToro MCP Server — 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.
