How to control get_option_chain ↓

AI agents call get_option_chain to retrieve information from Futu Stock MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

The tool retrieves options chain information (market data) from the Futu API without modifying or executing any operations. Although the description is empty, the name strongly indicates a query operation that returns options contract data. This follows the same pattern as other 'get_*' siblings on the server that fetch market data. No destructive, write, execute, or financial transaction capability is evident.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_option_chain' indicates data retrieval of options chain data. No side effects implied by the naming convention. Consistent with sibling tools like 'get_cur_kline', 'get_asset_list', and 'get_account_list' which are clearly read-only queries.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_option_chain gives an agent:

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

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

get_option_chain 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 Futu Stock 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.
