Why modify_order needs a policy

Modify_order alters existing trading orders, which is a Write operation (creates or modifies data reversibly). It is not Destructive because order modifications are typically reversible via further modifications or cancellations. It could have financial consequences if the modification changes trade parameters, but the core action is modifying data rather than moving money directly. Confidence is slightly reduced (0.

From the tool's definition Tool named 'modify_order' on a trading platform (Moomoo) that manages trading accounts and executes trades. Sibling tools include 'cancel_order' and 'get_deals', indicating this server handles order management operations.

How to control modify_order

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "modify_order": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "modify_order_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

modify_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.

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