THE RISK

Critical Risk

Why schwab_cancel_all_option_orders needs a policy

Canceling all open orders is a destructive action that cannot be undone and permanently removes pending financial instructions. An AI agent invoking this without explicit user intent could catastrophically disrupt an active trading strategy. The blast radius is critical because it affects all open option positions at once, not just one order.

From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'cancel_all' and description states 'Cancel all open option orders' — this irreversibly terminates all pending option trades without individual confirmation, eliminating the ability to execute those orders.

How to control schwab_cancel_all_option_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 schwab_cancel_all_option_orders:

policy.json

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

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