What export_preferences does on Cocos
AI agents call export_preferences to retrieve information from Cocos without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why export_preferences is rated Low
Exporting preferences reads and outputs the current configuration state without modifying or deleting any data. This is a read operation with low risk, though slight uncertainty exists about whether 'export' might write to a file on disk.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs export_preferences safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Cocos, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For export_preferences, this is the rule to start with:
export_preferences 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 Cocos, apply this rule, and every export_preferences call is checked against it from then on.

Register the Cocos MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for export_preferences: 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 Cocos. Nothing to install.
export_preferences is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the export_preferences 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for export_preferences. 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.
export_preferences is provided by the Cocos MCP server (caravanglory/cocos-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
