Why upload_artifact needs a policy

The upload_artifact tool creates or modifies artifacts in a cache system. This is a Write operation—it persists new or updated data reversibly. While the server context describes eToro public API interactions (read-only portfolio/instrument queries), the sibling tools (create_access_group, create_auth_token, add_project_member, etc.) suggest this MCP server also manages infrastructure/deployment artifacts.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'upload_artifact' and description 'Uploads a cache artifact identified by its hash' indicate file/data creation or modification via upload operation.

How to control upload_artifact

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 upload_artifact:

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

upload_artifact 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.

  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
