Narrow scan results with new value.

How to control scan_next ↓

AI agents call scan_next to retrieve information from Frida Game Hacking MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

'scan_next' is a classic Cheat Engine operation that filters previously found memory addresses by comparing them to a new value. It reads memory to compare values and narrows the result set — no modification occurs at this stage. However, in the broader context of a game hacking server, even read operations contribute to enabling memory manipulation workflows, hence medium severity.

From the tool's definition 'Narrow scan results with new value' — this tool filters/refines existing memory scan results based on a new value comparison

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

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Frida Game Hacking MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for scan_next:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "scan_next": {}
  }
}

scan_next is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Frida Game Hacking MCP — 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.
