Cancel an existing order by order_id.

How to control cancel_order ↓

AI agents call cancel_order 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

An AI agent that decides to call cancel_order doesn't hesitate, doesn't double-check, and doesn't stop at one. Whatever it removes from Futu Stock MCP Server is gone — there is no undo for destructive operations.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access cancel_order 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_order:

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

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

  1. Create a free account and register Futu Stock 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.
