What store.kv-scan does on Mcp
AI agents call store.kv-scan to retrieve information from Mcp without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why store.kv-scan is rated Low
This tool retrieves or queries data (keys in a namespace) without modifying, deleting, or executing anything. It has minimal blast radius—even if misused by an agent, it only exposes keys the wallet owner already has access to. This is a straightforward Read category operation.
From the tool's definition Tool name includes 'scan' and description states 'list keys in a namespace'. The verb 'list' is a read-only retrieval operation with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs store.kv-scan safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Mcp, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For store.kv-scan, this is the rule to start with:
store.kv-scan 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 Mcp, apply this rule, and every store.kv-scan call is checked against it from then on.
