## Why get_funding_rate_history is rated Low

This tool retrieves historical funding rate data from the Bybit exchange. It performs a read-only query of past information with no capability to modify, delete, or execute any operations. While the server overall provides access to trading and account management operations, this specific tool is limited to data retrieval.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_funding_rate_history' and description 'Get funding rate history' indicate a data retrieval operation. The verb 'get' combined with 'history' clearly denotes querying historical data without any side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call get_funding_rate_history to retrieve information from Bybit MCP Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Bybit MCP Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_funding_rate_history": {}
  }
}
```
