How to control ui_click ↓

AI agents invoke ui_click to trigger actions in TradingView MCP Bridge. 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.

High Risk

This tool triggers UI interactions (clicks) within the TradingView Desktop application via Chrome DevTools Protocol. Clicking UI elements is an execution action whose effects are entirely dependent on what element is targeted — it could trigger trades, modify settings, delete alerts, or perform other high-impact operations within TradingView.

From the tool's definition Click a UI element by aria-label, data-name, text content, or class substring

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access ui_click 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 ui_click:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "ui_click": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "ui_click_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

ui_click stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. 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.
