What batch_depths does on Itick
AI agents call batch_depths to retrieve information from Itick without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why batch_depths is rated Low
This tool retrieves market depth (order book) data in batch, consistent with other read-only market data tools on the server. No side effects, modifications, executions, or financial transactions are implied. Confidence is slightly reduced (0.85) due to empty tool description, but the sibling tool pattern and server context provide strong evidence of read-only data retrieval functionality.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'batch_depths' follows the naming pattern of sibling tools (batch_klines, batch_quotes, batch_ticks, single_depth) which all retrieve market data.

The rule that runs batch_depths safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Itick, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For batch_depths, this is the rule to start with:
batch_depths is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Itick, apply this rule, and every batch_depths call is checked against it from then on.
