Why get_secret needs a policy

This tool retrieves secret information but does not modify, delete, or execute operations. While secrets are sensitive, the Read category applies to any data retrieval. Severity is low because the tool only fetches metadata/information about a secret rather than executing code or making financial moves.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_secret' with description 'Get information for a specific secret' — the verb 'get' and phrase 'get information' indicate retrieval without modification.

How to control get_secret

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 get_secret:

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

get_secret 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 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.
