How to control orders_get ↓

AI agents call orders_get to retrieve information from MetaTrader 5 MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

The 'get' verb and naming pattern align with Read category tools. However, in a financial trading context, retrieving orders could expose sensitive trading positions and account strategy information, warranting medium severity. The empty description reduces confidence slightly, but context from related tools supports classification as a retrieval operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'orders_get' indicates retrieval of order data. The empty description is uninformative, but the sibling tools (copy_rates_*, copy_ticks_*, get_account_info, get_symbol_info) all perform data retrieval without side effects, suggesting this tool…

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access orders_get gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and MetaTrader 5 MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for orders_get:

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

orders_get 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 MetaTrader 5 MCP Server — 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.
