Is Limitless Exchange safe to connect to an AI agent?
You confirm each order. Safety 100%
What an AI agent can do
- Live vs paper: live only; no sandbox or testnet (docs say rehearse with minimum-size live orders) source
- Order approval: official trading MCP at api.limitless.exchange/mcp with a human approving each order on limitless.exchange (place_orders returns a link to review and submit; proposals expire after 10 minutes), while cancel_order and cancel_all_orders execute directly; open-source agents-starter repo runs dry-run by default source
- Markets: prediction markets (crypto, on Base)
- Pricing: API access free; trading fees per market
Safeguards that exist
- Can it place live orders unattended?: Live orders need a human confirmation step source
- Order approval or confirmation options: Approval/confirmation step documented source
- Paper, demo or testnet mode: Paper, demo or testnet mode available source
- Withdrawal permission needed or allowed: API tokens default to trading scope; withdrawal is a separate partner-only scope and API tokens can't edit the withdrawal allowlist (official docs) source
- Scoped keys, permission scopes or IP whitelisting: Scoped API tokens (trading, account_creation, delegated_signing, withdrawal); default is trading only (official docs) source
- Open source or audited: Open source source
