WHAT IT DOES

What create_faction does on SpaceMolt

AI agents use create_faction to create or update resources in SpaceMolt, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your SpaceMolt environment.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`tag`	string	Yes	Faction tag (2-4 characters)
`name`	string	Yes	Faction name (must be unique)
`session_id`	string	Yes	Your session ID from login/register

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why create_faction is rated Medium

This tool creates a new persistent game object (a faction) that modifies the game state. Creation is reversible in principle (e.g., faction could be deleted or abandoned later), so it falls under Write rather than Destructive.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Create a new faction' with constraints on tag and name uniqueness, indicating irreversible creation of a new game entity.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs create_faction safely

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

create_faction Rate-limited

create_faction stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
