Why logout_broker needs a policy

This tool terminates authentication sessions with brokers. It doesn't read data, write/modify trading data, execute trades, destroy data, or move money. It is a session management operation — invalidating credentials/tokens — which fits 'Other' as the most accurate category. Misuse could disrupt trading operations by ending active sessions, but the blast radius is limited and reversible via re-authentication.

How to control logout_broker

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "logout_broker": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "logout_broker_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 60,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

logout_broker gets a rate cap, and everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Turtlestack Lite — 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.
