RISK

Why scrape_steam is rated Low

This tool retrieves data from public Steam game pages without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a data retrieval/scraping function with no side effects. The pay-per-call model and data enrichment context (consistent with sibling lookup/enrich tools) further confirm it is informational only.

From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states it 'Scrape[s] Steam game pages (reviews, price, system reqs)' — retrieves publicly available data with no modification, deletion, or execution capabilities.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs scrape_steam safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and GoCreative Agent API, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For scrape_steam, this is the rule to start with:

scrape_steam Allowed

scrape_steam is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "scrape_steam": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect GoCreative Agent API, apply this rule, and every scrape_steam call is checked against it from then on.
