What survey_system does on SpaceMolt
AI agents call survey_system to retrieve information from SpaceMolt without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why survey_system is rated Low
This tool performs a scan/survey operation that reads and reveals information about the game world (hidden deposits and POIs). It has no destructive, financial, or write side effects — it only discovers information and awards XP, which is a standard read-like operation in game context. Severity is low as misuse only wastes in-game resources (scanner module usage).

The rule that runs survey_system 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 survey_system, this is the rule to start with:
survey_system 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 survey_system call is checked against it from then on.
