  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

## Why tv_launch is rated High

This tool launches a desktop application with remote debugging enabled, granting programmatic control over TradingView's interface and operations. While launching an app is not inherently destructive, enabling Chrome DevTools Protocol allows arbitrary inspection and manipulation of the application state, DOM, and execution context.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool 'Launch TradingView Desktop with Chrome DevTools Protocol (remote debugging) enabled' triggers execution of an external application with remote debugging capabilities enabled, which grants the ability to instrument and control the application's behavior."

## Use case

AI agents invoke tv_launch to trigger actions in TradingView MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
