Cancel all cancellable orders for a trading account.

How to control cancel_all_orders ↓

AI agents call cancel_all_orders to permanently remove resources in Futu Stock MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Critical Risk

Cancelling all orders is a destructive action that cannot be reversed. Once cancelled, orders are gone and must be manually re-submitted. This has severe financial implications in a trading context, as it could disrupt a user's trading strategy, cause missed market opportunities, and result in significant financial loss. The blast radius is high because a single invocation affects all pending orders simultaneously.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'cancel_all_orders' and description states it will 'Cancel all cancellable orders for a trading account.' This irreversibly cancels multiple pending orders, which cannot be undone once executed.

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

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "cancel_all_orders"
  ]
}

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

  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
