Why queryTradeHistory needs a policy

This is a read-only operation that retrieves and filters historical trading data from the user's account. It has no side effects—it does not create, modify, delete, or execute any trades or financial transactions. The use cases (reporting, auditing, exporting) all confirm passive data retrieval.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'queryTradeHistory' and description explicitly states it 'Query historical trade records' with 'pagination support' and retrieves 'trade reports', 'reconciliation', and 'export' use cases.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access queryTradeHistory gives an agent:

How to control queryTradeHistory

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

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

queryTradeHistory 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 Bybit 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.
