AI agents call get_option_price to retrieve information from Helium MCP Server - News, Markets & AI 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_option_price 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.

What does the get_option_price tool do? +

Get Helium's proprietary ML model-predicted price for a specific option contract. Helium trains per-symbol regression models on historical options data. This tool looks up the most recent available options chain for the symbol (today or up to 5 days back), finds the exact contract matching strike/expiration/type, and runs it through that model to produce a predicted fair-value price. Returns: - symbol: the ticker - strike: the strike price used - expiration: the expiration date used - option_type: 'call' or 'put' - predicted_price: Helium's model-predicted option price in dollars - prob_itm: probability of expiring in the money (0.0–1.0), or null if model unavailable - options_data_date: the date of the options chain snapshot the model was run on (so you know how fresh the underlying market data is) Throws an error if no options chain data is available for the symbol within the past 5 days, or if the exact contract (strike/expiration/type combination) does not exist in that chain. Args: symbol: Ticker symbol, e.g. 'AAPL', 'SPY'. strike: Strike price as a number, e.g. 150.0. expiration: Expiration date as 'YYYY-MM-DD', e.g. '2026-06-20'. option_type: Must be 'call' or 'put'.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Helium MCP Server - News, Markets & AI MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
