run_rsi_backtest · Nubra MCP Server MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What run_rsi_backtest does on Nubra MCP Server

AI agents invoke run_rsi_backtest to trigger actions in Nubra MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why run_rsi_backtest needs a policy

This tool executes a backtesting engine—a computational operation with parameters that determine outcomes. Although backtesting itself is non-destructive and does not move real money or modify live data, it runs code/algorithms whose behavior is argument-dependent, placing it firmly in the Execute category.

From the tool's definition Tool is described as 'Run an RSI-based backtest' with inputs controlling strategy parameters (rsi_window, oversold, overbought, initial_cash, fees).
