# subscribe

Create a proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream. Returns the new subscription id. Requires a Pipeworx OAuth account (anonymous + BYO cannot persist subscriptions). Supported types: "sec_8k" (8-K filings matching ticker + item codes — e.g. items:["5.02"] = officer change), "polymarket_edge" (Polymarket↔Kalshi cross-venue mispricings — params:{topic:"fed"}), "fred_series" (new FRED observations — params:{series_id:"UNRATE"}). Delivery channels: feed (always on — pull via recent_alerts or GET registry.pipeworx.io/alerts.json), and optionally email (set delivery:{email:"you@x.com"}) or sms (delivery:{sms:"+15551234567"} — phone must be verified at /account first; 10/day cap).

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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "subscribe",
    "arguments": {
      "type": "<type>",
      "params": {}
    }
  }
}
```

## Why subscribe is rated Medium

This tool creates and persists a new subscription resource (Write category), which is a reversible state change. The user can later delete or modify the subscription. The severity is medium because misuse could lead to unwanted monitoring and email notifications being set up on behalf of a user, potentially exfiltrating alerts to an attacker-controlled email address or creating spam/resource exhaustion.

From the tool's own definition: "Create a proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream. Returns the new subscription id. ... Requires a Pipeworx OAuth account ... Supported types: 'sec_8k', 'polymarket_edge', 'fred_series'. Delivery channels: feed ... and optionally email."

Risk signals: Accepts URL/endpoint input (delivery.webhook)

## Use case

AI agents use subscribe to create or update resources in 19hz, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your 19hz environment.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches 19hz:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "subscribe": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "subscribe_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
