Why strategy_list_local needs a policy

This tool queries and returns information about existing local strategies without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing anything. It is a pure read operation with minimal security risk, even in the context of financial strategy management. The worst-case scenario would be unauthorized disclosure of strategy metadata, which is a low-severity read vulnerability.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'strategy_list_local' and description 'List all local strategies (forked or created)' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.

How to control strategy_list_local

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_list_local:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "strategy_list_local": {}
  }
}

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

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