Why get_price needs a policy

This tool retrieves current cryptocurrency prices—a pure read operation with no capability to modify data, execute commands, or commit financial transactions. The severity is low because price data is publicly available information; misuse cannot cause financial loss, data corruption, or unintended account actions. The confidence is high given the explicit retrieval semantics in both the tool name and description.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_price' and description 'Get the latest trade price for a given symbol' indicate a data retrieval operation with no side effects.

How to control get_price

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

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

get_price 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 Binance 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.
