AI agents call get_trade_dates to retrieve information from A Share without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves trading dates from a financial data server—a read-only query operation with no side effects. It returns data without modification, creation, deletion, or execution of external operations. The low severity reflects minimal harm potential even if misused by an AI agent; trade date information is public market data with no destructive, financial transaction, or code execution capabilities.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_trade_dates' and server description indicating 'data query' functionality. The server provides 'real-time quotes, historical K-line data, financial statements, technical indicators' and 'batch query' capabilities.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and A Share, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_trade_dates:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_trade_dates": {}
}
}get_trade_dates is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
