WHAT IT DOES

What amend_order does on Bybit MCP Server

AI agents use amend_order to create or update resources in Bybit MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Bybit MCP Server environment.

RISK

Why amend_order is rated Medium

Amending an order modifies existing trading data reversibly (the order can be amended again or cancelled), placing it in the Write category. However, since this operates on financial trading orders on Bybit, misuse could result in significant financial exposure — changing prices, quantities, or directions of pending trades.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs amend_order safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Bybit MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For amend_order, this is the rule to start with:

amend_order Rate-limited

amend_order stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
