Part of the Finimpulse MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents call get_histories to retrieve information from Finimpulse without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.
Even though get_histories only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.
Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

Returns time-series data for an asset in a single unified stream. This endpoint can return historical prices and, optionally, additional history “event” types such as dividends, splits, and capital gains (where available). It is a configurable endpoint that lets you control the date range, interval, included record types, sorting, and page size.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Finimpulse MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for get_histories. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Finimpulse MCP server.
get_histories is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_histories rule in your Intercept policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for get_histories. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
get_histories is provided by the Finimpulse MCP server (finimpulse-mcp-server). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
