What confirm_risk_limit does on Bybit
AI agents call confirm_risk_limit to retrieve information from Bybit without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why confirm_risk_limit is rated Low
Even though confirm_risk_limit only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
