This tool retrieves existing Pine Script source code from the TradingView editor without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any code. It is a straightforward data query operation that has no side effects. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could only read source code that is already accessible, which poses no integrity or availability risk.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'pine_get_source' and description 'Get current Pine Script source code from the editor' indicate data retrieval with no modification. The verb 'Get' and lack of any modifying action confirms read-only behavior.

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 pine_get_source:

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

pine_get_source is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
