Why cancel_all_option_orders_tool needs a policy

Cancelling all open option orders is an irreversible bulk action — once cancelled, those orders cannot be reinstated. The 'all' scope makes the blast radius high, as a misuse could wipe out an entire portfolio of pending option orders simultaneously. Even in a paper trading context, this constitutes irreversible destruction of order state.

How to control cancel_all_option_orders_tool

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "cancel_all_option_orders_tool"
  ]
}

cancel_all_option_orders_tool disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.
