Signer MCP Tools (5)
list_venues
Returns the static manifest of venues this Signer can sign for. **Read-only**, does not contact the gateway, works without a token. Call this first to discover what's supported.
get_attestation
Returns the Nitro attestation document for the currently-running enclave. The PCR0 measurement here is what AWS signed when it booted the enclave; you can verify it matches the published build by hashing the corresponding EIF and comparing.
get_account
Returns equity, free margin, and open positions for a venue.
place_order
Place a single market or limit order. The enclave signs the payload after checking policy caps.
cancel_order
Cancels an outstanding order by its venue order id. Idempotent — cancelling an already-filled or non-existent order returns `ok: false` with a venue reason instead of erroring.
