spawn

Spawn a process suspended for early hooking.

How to control spawn ↓

AI agents invoke spawn to trigger actions in Frida Game Hacking MCP. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

High Risk

Spawning a process is an Execute-category action with high severity. It launches an arbitrary process on the host system, and the suspended state is explicitly designed to facilitate hooking and code injection before execution begins. Misuse could allow an AI agent to launch malicious processes or compromise running software.

From the tool's definition 'Spawn a process suspended for early hooking' — launches a new process in a suspended state to enable early code injection and function hooking

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "spawn": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "spawn_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

spawn stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. 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.

What does the spawn tool do? +

Spawn a process suspended for early hooking. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Frida Game Hacking MCP MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on spawn? +

Register the Frida Game Hacking MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for spawn: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Frida Game Hacking MCP. Nothing to install.

What risk level is spawn? +

spawn is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit spawn? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the spawn rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block spawn completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for spawn. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides spawn? +

spawn is provided by the Frida Game Hacking MCP server (0xhackerfren/frida-game-hacking-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Frida Game Hacking MCP tool call.
