Why fetch_trades needs a policy

This tool retrieves historical trade data for informational purposes only. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute any operations. While it operates in a crypto trading context (surrounded by financial tools like create_order, cancel_order), fetch_trades itself is purely informational—it cannot move funds, execute trades, or cause irreversible changes.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'fetch_trades' and description 'Fetch the list of recent trades for a given symbol' indicate data retrieval with no side effects.

How to control fetch_trades

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_trades:

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

fetch_trades 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.
