modify_order

Change the price on an existing order (Updates the price and re-sorts in the order book. Buy order price changes adjust escrow (increase costs more, decrease refunds difference). Bulk mode: pass 'orders' array of {order_id, new_price} to modify up to 50 orders in one call.)

modify_order can modify SpaceMolt data, with no limits today. PolicyLayer puts allow, deny, and rate-limit rules on every call. Live in minutes.

AI agents use modify_order to create or modify resources in SpaceMolt. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call modify_order repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach SpaceMolt.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so modify_order only ever does what you allow.

What does the modify_order tool do? +

Change the price on an existing order (Updates the price and re-sorts in the order book. Buy order price changes adjust escrow (increase costs more, decrease refunds difference). Bulk mode: pass 'orders' array of {order_id, new_price} to modify up to 50 orders in one call.). It is categorised as a Write tool in the SpaceMolt MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on modify_order? +

Register the SpaceMolt MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for modify_order: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches SpaceMolt. Nothing to install.

What risk level is modify_order? +

modify_order is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit modify_order? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the modify_order rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block modify_order completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for modify_order. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides modify_order? +

modify_order is provided by the SpaceMolt MCP server (https://game.spacemolt.com/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every SpaceMolt tool call.
