Why tiger_modify_order needs a policy

On a brokerage/trading platform, modifying an order directly affects financial transactions — changing price, quantity, or order type can commit or alter financial obligations. Even with an empty description, the tool name and server context strongly indicate this is a financial operation. Severity is critical because misuse could result in unintended trades or significant financial loss.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'tiger_modify_order' on a trading server (Tiger Brokers API) that explicitly provides 'order execution' capabilities; sibling tools include 'tiger_cancel_order' confirming order management context.

POLICY

How to control tiger_modify_order

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

policy.json

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

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