Reset backtest state/result on the API server.
AI agents call reset_backtest to permanently remove resources in Freqtrade-MCP — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
The 'reset' operation on backtest state/results constitutes irreversible data destruction. Once backtest results are reset, the historical record is lost and cannot be recovered without re-running the backtest. This is a destructive operation that cannot be undone.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'reset_backtest' combined with description 'Reset backtest state/result on the API server' indicates irreversible deletion or clearing of historical backtest data and results.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Reset backtest state/result on the API server. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Freqtrade-MCP MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Freqtrade- MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for reset_backtest: 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.
reset_backtest is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the reset_backtest 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 reset_backtest. 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.
reset_backtest 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.
