WHAT IT DOES

What tv_discover does on TradingView MCP Server

AI agents call tv_discover 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.

RISK

Why tv_discover is rated Low

This tool queries and returns information about API availability and methods. It performs no data modification, code execution, deletion, or financial operations. The severity is low because discovering API paths is informational reconnaissance with minimal direct harm—though it could facilitate subsequent attacks, the tool itself is purely read-only introspection.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'tv_discover' and description 'Report which known TradingView API paths are available and their methods' indicate a discovery/enumeration function that retrieves information about available API endpoints without modifying or executing operations.
