WHAT IT DOES

What ccxt_cancel_order does on Codex CCXT MCP

AI agents invoke ccxt_cancel_order to trigger actions in Codex CCXT MCP. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

RISK

Why ccxt_cancel_order is rated High

Cancelling an order triggers an external operation on the exchange that terminates an active order. While it doesn't move money directly, it is an irreversible action affecting live trading state on an external system. It is gated by a trading gate (dry-run guard), indicating real financial side effects are possible.

From the tool's definition Call exchange.cancelOrder(id, symbol, params), subject to the trading gate.
