THE RISK

Low Risk

Why strategy_leaderboard needs a policy

This tool retrieves or queries leaderboard data, which is a read-only operation with no side effects, no code execution, and no financial impact. It simply fetches existing information from the Hub. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—an AI agent misusing this tool could only retrieve leaderboard information, causing no harm.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'strategy_leaderboard' and description 'Query strategy leaderboard from Hub' indicate a retrieval operation. The verb 'Query' and 'from Hub' explicitly denote data retrieval with no modification or execution.

POLICY

How to control strategy_leaderboard

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and OpenFinClaw CLI, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for strategy_leaderboard:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "strategy_leaderboard": {}
  }
}

strategy_leaderboard is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register OpenFinClaw CLI — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
