Why options_orders needs a policy

This tool only queries and returns historical options order data. It has no side effects, does not execute trades, modify accounts, or move money. It is a straightforward Read operation with minimal risk—the worst outcome is information disclosure about the user's own trading history.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'options_orders' and description 'Retrieves a list of recent options order history and their statuses' indicate a read-only query operation. The verb 'retrieves' and noun 'list' are characteristic of data retrieval with no modification or execution.

How to control options_orders

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "options_orders": {}
  }
}

options_orders is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Open Stocks MCP — 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.
