List all your past and current live trading deployments.
AI agents call list_live_algorithms to retrieve information from QuantConnect MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves information about existing live trading deployments without modifying, executing, or deleting any data. It is a straightforward data retrieval operation that fits the Read category. The low severity reflects that listing deployments poses minimal risk—the tool does not execute trades, modify configurations, or commit financial transactions.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_live_algorithms' and description 'List all your past and current live trading deployments' indicate a retrieval/query operation with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List all your past and current live trading deployments. It is categorised as a Read tool in the QuantConnect MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the QuantConnect MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_live_algorithms: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches QuantConnect MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_live_algorithms is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the list_live_algorithms rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for list_live_algorithms. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
list_live_algorithms is provided by the QuantConnect MCP Server MCP server (mymanish9-code11/quantconnect-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
