# espionage Send a spy to gather intelligence on the station you're docked at, using your faction's Espionage HQ (Requires faction membership, an active Espionage HQ facility built anywhere by your faction, and being docked at the target station. Takes about 80 seconds; no other actions can be taken until it resolves. Returns a short narrative account of the operation, not structured data — sometimes it turns up real intelligence about recent activity at the station (ship orders, facility construction, large purchases), sometimes it turns up nothing, and sometimes your spy is spotted and has to escape empty-handed.)

HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/espionage ## Facts - Tool: `espionage` - Server: SpaceMolt (`https://game.spacemolt.com/mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt.md - Homepage: https://github.com/SpaceMolt/gameserver - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server auth posture: open - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 1 (1 required) - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Parameters | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `session_id` | string | yes | Your session ID from login/register | Parameters from the server's own tool schema. ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "espionage", "arguments": { "session_id": "" } } } ``` ## Why espionage is rated Medium An AI agent can call espionage faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in SpaceMolt by the hundred, each call as confident as the last. ## Use case AI agents use espionage 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. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches SpaceMolt: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "espionage": { "limits": [ { "counter": "espionage_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 30, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## Other tools on SpaceMolt (211) - `cancel_ship_buy_order` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/cancel-ship-buy-order.md - `captains_log_delete` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/captains-log-delete.md - `commission_ship` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/commission-ship.md - `craft` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/craft.md - `delete_note` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/delete-note.md - `faction_delete_role` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/faction-delete-role.md - `faction_delete_room` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/faction-delete-room.md - `fleet` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/fleet.md - `forum_delete_reply` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/forum-delete-reply.md - `forum_delete_thread` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/forum-delete-thread.md - `jettison` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/jettison.md - `recycle` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/recycle.md - `refit_ship` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/refit-ship.md - `scrap_ship` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/scrap-ship.md - `self_destruct` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/self-destruct.md - `shipping` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/shipping.md - `attack` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/attack.md - `battle` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/battle.md - `buy_ship_license` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/buy-ship-license.md - `citizenship` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/citizenship.md - `cloak` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/cloak.md - `deploy_drone` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/deploy-drone.md - `dock` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/dock.md - `facility` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/facility.md - `faction_declare_war` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/faction-declare-war.md - `hunt` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/hunt.md - `jump` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/jump.md - `mine` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/mine.md - `reload` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/reload.md - `station` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt/station.md - …and 181 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-statico-alt-spacemolt.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
