Safety controls of 10 broker MCP servers
Before you let an AI agent near a brokerage account, check how each broker gates orders: confirmation tokens, explicit confirmation, separate demo/live endpoints, dedicated accounts or scoped toolsets. Each row links to the broker's own page.

Our checklist
- Start on paper/demo, and enable live trading only after reviewing logs.
- Scope tools to read-only where the server allows it.
- Prefer servers that require a confirmation step before order submission.
- Put your own deterministic risk limits between the agent and the broker.
