List saved chart layouts

How to control layout_list ↓

AI agents call layout_list to retrieve information from TradingView MCP Bridge without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

This tool performs a simple query/retrieval of saved chart layouts with no side effects. It does not create, modify, delete data, nor execute external operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could only enumerate layouts it already has access to. Classification as Read is appropriate.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'layout_list' and description 'List saved chart layouts' indicate a read-only operation that retrieves existing layout data without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access layout_list gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and TradingView MCP Bridge, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for layout_list:

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

layout_list 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 TradingView MCP Bridge — 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.
