Preview order costs and requirements (READ-ONLY - does not execute trades)
AI agents call confirmOrder to retrieve information from TradeStation MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool explicitly states it is READ-ONLY and does not execute trades. It only previews/confirms order costs and requirements without placing or modifying any orders, making it a pure read operation with minimal risk.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Preview order costs and requirements (READ-ONLY - does not execute trades). It is categorised as a Read tool in the TradeStation MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the TradeStation MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for confirmOrder: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches TradeStation MCP Server. Nothing to install.
confirmOrder is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the confirmOrder rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for confirmOrder. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
confirmOrder is provided by the TradeStation MCP Server MCP server (maven81g/tradestation_mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
