GetTimeSeriesAdd

The Addition (ADD) indicator performs a simple arithmetic addition of two input data series, typically used to combine multiple technical indicators or price data.

How to control GetTimeSeriesAdd ↓

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

Low Risk

GetTimeSeriesAdd is a technical indicator computation tool that takes input data series and returns a calculated result. It retrieves/processes data without side effects, does not modify underlying data, does not execute code or external operations, and does not commit financial transactions. This is a pure read operation that combines existing data for analytical purposes.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'performs a simple arithmetic addition of two input data series' - a mathematical operation on existing data with no modification, creation, deletion, or execution of external operations.

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

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

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

GetTimeSeriesAdd 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 Twelve Data MCP Server — 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.

What does the GetTimeSeriesAdd tool do? +

The Addition (ADD) indicator performs a simple arithmetic addition of two input data series, typically used to combine multiple technical indicators or price data. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Twelve Data MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on GetTimeSeriesAdd? +

Register the Twelve Data MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for GetTimeSeriesAdd: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Twelve Data MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is GetTimeSeriesAdd? +

GetTimeSeriesAdd is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit GetTimeSeriesAdd? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the GetTimeSeriesAdd rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block GetTimeSeriesAdd completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for GetTimeSeriesAdd. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides GetTimeSeriesAdd? +

GetTimeSeriesAdd is provided by the Twelve Data MCP Server MCP server (twelvedata/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Twelve Data MCP Server tool call.
