How to control get_top_traders ↓

AI agents call get_top_traders to retrieve information from Nepse API 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 trading data (top traders) from a financial data API without modifying, deleting, or executing external operations. This is consistent with other market data query tools on the same server. The empty description slightly lowers confidence, but the naming pattern and server purpose clearly indicate a read-only data retrieval function with minimal risk if misused.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_top_traders' follows the naming convention of other tools on this server (get_company_floorsheet, get_company_list, get_daily_*_subindex_graph) which are all read-only data retrieval operations.

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

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

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

get_top_traders 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 Nepse API 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.
