Retrieve trading performance metrics.
AI agents call fetch_performance to retrieve information from Freqtrade-MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves historical performance data from the Freqtrade bot without making any changes to bot state, executing trades, or causing side effects. It is a pure read operation that queries existing performance metrics. The severity is low because accessing performance data poses minimal security risk—it provides no ability to execute trades, modify configurations, or delete data.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'fetch_performance' and description 'Retrieve trading performance metrics' indicate data retrieval with no modification or execution capabilities.

Register the Freqtrade- MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for fetch_performance: 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 Freqtrade-MCP. Nothing to install.
fetch_performance is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the fetch_performance 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for fetch_performance. 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.
fetch_performance is provided by the Freqtrade- MCP server (worlddebugger/freqtrade-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
