AI agents may call varrd_ai to permanently remove or destroy resources in VARRD — Statistically Validated Trading Edges + AI Research Engine. Without a policy, an autonomous agent could delete critical data in a loop with no way to undo the damage. PolicyLayer blocks destructive tools by default and requires explicit human approval before enabling them.
Without a policy, an AI agent could call varrd_ai in a loop, permanently destroying resources in VARRD — Statistically Validated Trading Edges + AI Research Engine. There is no undo for destructive operations. PolicyLayer blocks this tool by default and only allows it when a human explicitly approves the action.
Destructive tools permanently remove data. Block by default. Only enable with explicit approval workflows.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access varrd_ai gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:
Other destructive tools across the catalogue. The same approach applies to each: deny by default, or require human approval.
Talk to VARRD AI (~$0.25/turn). Describe any trading idea in plain language and the system handles everything — loading decades of market data, charting your pattern, running statistical tests, backtesting with stops, and generating exact trade setups. MULTI-TURN: First call creates a session. Keep calling with the same session_id, following context.next_actions each time. 1. Your idea -> VARRD charts pattern 2. 'test it' -> statistical test (event study or backtest) 3. 'show me the trade setup' -> exact entry/stop/target prices HYPOTHESIS INTEGRITY (critical): VARRD tests ONE hypothesis at a time — one formula, one setup. Never combine multiple setups into one formula or ask to 'test all' — each idea must be tested as a separate hypothesis for the statistics to be valid. Say 'start a new hypothesis' between ideas to reset cleanly. - ALLOWED: Test the SAME setup across multiple markets ('test this on ES, NQ, and CL') — same formula, different data. - NOT ALLOWED: Test multiple DIFFERENT formulas/setups at once — each is a separate hypothesis requiring its own chart-test-result cycle. If ELROND council returns 4 setups, test each one separately: chart setup 1 -> test -> results -> 'start new hypothesis' -> chart setup 2 -> etc. KEY CAPABILITIES you can ask for: - 'Use the ELROND council on [market]' -> 8 expert investigators - 'Optimize the stop loss and take profit' -> SL/TP grid search - 'Test this on ES, NQ, and CL' -> multi-market testing - 'Simulate trading this with 1.5 ATR stop' -> backtest with stops EDGE VERDICTS in context.edge_verdict after testing: - STRONG EDGE: Significant vs zero AND vs market baseline - MARGINAL: Significant vs zero only (beats nothing, but real signal) - PINNED: Significant vs market only (flat returns but different from market) - NO EDGE: Neither significant test passed TERMINAL STATES: Stop when context.has_edge is true (edge found) or false (no edge — valid result). Always read context.next_actions.. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the VARRD — Statistically Validated Trading Edges + AI Research Engine MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the VARRD — Statistically Validated Trading Edges + AI Research Engine MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for varrd_ai: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches VARRD — Statistically Validated Trading Edges + AI Research Engine. Nothing to install.
varrd_ai is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the varrd_ai rule in your PolicyLayer 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 PolicyLayer policy for varrd_ai. 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.
varrd_ai is provided by the VARRD — Statistically Validated Trading Edges + AI Research Engine MCP server (https://app.varrd.com/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
