What scan_next does on Frida Game Hacking MCP
AI agents call scan_next to retrieve information from Frida Game Hacking MCP without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why scan_next is rated Low
'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

scan_next is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Frida Game Hacking MCP, apply this rule, and every scan_next call is checked against it from then on.
