Why get_learned_patterns needs a policy

This tool retrieves and reads historical pattern data and statistics from completed backtests. It does not create, modify, delete, execute code, or commit financial transactions. While the server context involves financial analysis, this specific tool only reads aggregated results, placing it firmly in the Read category with low severity and high confidence.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_learned_patterns' and description 'Get auto-extracted patterns from past backtests with win rates' indicate retrieval of historical analysis results.

How to control get_learned_patterns

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

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

get_learned_patterns 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 Momentum — 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.
