## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

  "params": {
    "name": "wait_event",
    "arguments": {}

## Why wait_event is rated High

The tool appears to block execution pending an event trigger in a trading system. Without description details, confidence is moderate, but 'wait' operations in trading contexts typically represent control flow that can affect timing of trades or market operations—making it Execute rather than Read.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'wait_event' with empty description on MetaTrader5 MCP Server suggests event-driven execution; context indicates trading system operations."

## Use case

AI agents invoke wait_event to trigger actions in MetaTrader5 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.
