Why get_auth_url needs a policy

This tool simply returns an authentication URL that initiates an OAuth flow, which is a read-only operation with no side effects. The user must separately interact with that URL to authorize access. The tool itself performs no state changes, does not execute code or commands, does not delete data, and does not involve financial transactions. It is a standard Read category operation with low severity.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_auth_url' and description 'Get the Whoop authorization URL' indicate retrieval of a URL endpoint. No modification, deletion, execution, or financial transaction occurs—only retrieval of a public authorization endpoint.

How to control get_auth_url

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

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

get_auth_url 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 Whoop 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.
