WHAT IT DOES

What ccxt_edit_order does on Codex CCXT MCP

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

RISK

Why ccxt_edit_order is rated Medium

editOrder() is a reversible modification operation that changes order properties without deleting data or executing irreversible transactions. While it affects financial markets and could cause financial harm if misused, it remains a Write operation because: (1) the edit is reversible (user can edit again or cancel), (2) the tool is gated for safety, and (3) no funds are immediately moved.

From the tool's definition Tool calls exchange.editOrder() which modifies an existing order's parameters (type, side, amount, price). The description explicitly states it is 'subject to the trading gate', indicating safety controls are in place to prevent destructive misuse.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs ccxt_edit_order safely

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

ccxt_edit_order Rate-limited

ccxt_edit_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.
