WHAT IT DOES

What ccxt_set_leverage does on Codex CCXT MCP

AI agents use ccxt_set_leverage 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_set_leverage is rated Medium

Setting leverage is a Write operation—it modifies account state reversibly by adjusting the leverage multiplier for a trading symbol. It is not Destructive (reversible), not Financial (does not move money directly), and not Execute (does not run arbitrary code or trigger external operations beyond the leverage configuration itself).

From the tool's definition Tool calls exchange.setLeverage(leverage, symbol, params) which modifies leverage settings on a derivatives/margin account.
