While in-game, intel might have strategic value, the tool itself performs no writes, executions, destructive actions, or financial transactions. The 'Does not require docking' note is merely a gameplay mechanic constraint.
From the tool's definition The tool 'Query your faction's intel database' performs information retrieval operations with filtering and pagination parameters (system_id, system_name, resource_type, poi_type, empire, offset, limit).
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs faction_query_intel 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 faction_query_intel, this is the rule to start with:
faction_query_intel 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 SpaceMolt, apply this rule, and every faction_query_intel call is checked against it from then on.
