How to control screenshot_window ↓

AI agents call screenshot_window 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

This tool retrieves/queries visual data from a window without side effects. It does not modify memory, inject code, delete data, or execute commands. While the server as a whole enables potentially malicious hacking capabilities, this specific tool is purely observational.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'screenshot_window' and description 'Take a screenshot of a specific window' indicate a read-only operation that captures visual data without modifying, deleting, or executing code.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access screenshot_window 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 screenshot_window:

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

screenshot_window 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.
