Returns the amount of the stocks owned directly and recorded in the company
AI agents call GetDirectHolders to retrieve information from Twelve Data MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries financial metadata (direct stock ownership information) with no side effects, no data modification, no code execution, and no financial transactions. It is purely informational, making it a Read operation with low severity risk.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Twelve Data MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for GetDirectHolders:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"GetDirectHolders": {}
}
}GetDirectHolders is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
