THE RISK

Critical Risk

Why place_order needs a policy

This tool directly commits financial transactions on Binance, executing real trades with real money on the mainnet. Misuse by an AI agent could result in unauthorized trades, significant financial losses, or market exposure. This is unambiguously a Financial category tool with critical severity due to the irreversible monetary impact of live order placement.

From the tool's definition 下单交易 - 支持主网和测试网（主网将使用真实资金）: 'place_order' places trading orders; description explicitly states 'mainnet will use real funds'

POLICY

How to control place_order

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "place_order": {
      "deny_if": [
        {
          "conditions": [],
          "on_deny": "Requires human approval."
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Any call to place_order is blocked until a human approves it. The rest of the server keeps working.

Create a free account and register Binance — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
