How to control query_history ↓

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

Low Risk

The name 'query_history' strongly suggests data retrieval with no side effects. While the empty description reduces confidence slightly, the naming convention and sibling tools (analyze_stock, run_backtest) that perform calculations on historical data indicate this is a Read operation. No write, delete, execute, or financial transaction capabilities are implied.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'query_history' indicates retrieval of historical data with no description provided. Based on context (Wyckoff Trading Agent analyzing stock data), this likely queries historical price/volume data for analysis purposes.

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

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

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

query_history 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 Wyckoff Trading Agent 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.
