Why freqtrade_list_docs needs a policy

Despite the empty description, the tool name and server context strongly indicate this is a documentation listing tool. The server is explicitly read-only and provides 'introspection data and documentation'. The pattern of sibling tools (all get/list operations on metadata) confirms this is data retrieval with no side effects.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'freqtrade_list_docs' and server description explicitly states this is a 'read-only MCP server'. All sibling tools (freqtrade_get_*) are documentation/introspection retrieval operations with no write capability.

How to control freqtrade_list_docs

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

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

freqtrade_list_docs 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 Freqtrade — 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.
