## Why capture_screenshot is rated Low

This tool reads/retrieves visual information from the TradingView interface. It has no side effects on data, does not modify any state, does not execute external operations, and does not delete or move resources. The screenshot capture is a passive observation operation, making it a Read category tool with low severity risk.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'capture_screenshot' and description 'Take a screenshot of the TradingView chart' indicate a retrieval operation that captures visual data without modifying state, creating side effects, or executing code."

## Use case

AI agents call capture_screenshot to retrieve information from TradingView 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 TradingView MCP Server:

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