OHLCV data is purely historical price/volume information with no state-changing capability. Even in a trading context, fetching market data carries minimal risk—it cannot execute trades, transfer funds, or delete data. The tool's presence among sibling tools (amm_price, analyze_crypto_data, coin_info, compute_indicators) that are all read-based reinforces this classification.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'fetch_ohlcv' indicates retrieval of Open-High-Low-Close-Volume candlestick data, a standard financial time-series read operation. Despite empty description, the name directly implies data retrieval with no mutation or execution side effects.

How to control fetch_ohlcv

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

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

fetch_ohlcv 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 Crypto Multi-MCP Hub — 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.
