What list_presets does on Tradingview

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

Why list_presets needs a policy

Even though list_presets only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs — an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
