## Facts

- Tool: `inject`
- Server: Claude C2 (`0xyg3n/claude-c2`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xyg3n-claude-c2.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/0xyg3n/claude-c2
- Risk category: Execute (High risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "inject",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why inject is rated High

Injecting shellcode is one of the most severe offensive operations possible: it executes arbitrary machine code in a remote system's process space, enabling full compromise, privilege escalation, persistence, lateral movement, etc. Given the server context (bypassing UAC, AMSI, Defender exclusions, browser credential theft), this is clearly a malicious remote-access/C2 capability.

From the tool's own definition: "'Inject shellcode. Auto-selects client.' — shellcode injection is arbitrary native code execution in a remote process"

## Use case

AI agents invoke inject to trigger actions in Claude C2. 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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Claude C2:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "inject": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "inject_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
