risk_drawdown

Drawdown decomposition with underwater curve. Use when analyzing drawdown characteristics of a return series. Provide an array of returns. Returns: max drawdown, drawdown duration, recovery time, current drawdown, and all drawdown periods with start/end indices.

Part of the Quantoracle MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

QuantOracle/quantoracle Execute Risk 3/5

AI agents invoke risk_drawdown to trigger processes or run actions in Quantoracle. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.

risk_drawdown can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. Intercept enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.

Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

What does the risk_drawdown tool do? +

Drawdown decomposition with underwater curve. Use when analyzing drawdown characteristics of a return series. Provide an array of returns. Returns: max drawdown, drawdown duration, recovery time, current drawdown, and all drawdown periods with start/end indices.. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Quantoracle MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on risk_drawdown? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for risk_drawdown. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Quantoracle MCP server.

What risk level is risk_drawdown? +

risk_drawdown is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit risk_drawdown? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the risk_drawdown rule in your Intercept 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.

How do I block risk_drawdown completely? +

Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for risk_drawdown. 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.

What MCP server provides risk_drawdown? +

risk_drawdown is provided by the Quantoracle MCP server (QuantOracle/quantoracle). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
