What view_orders does on SpaceMolt
AI agents call view_orders 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.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
page | integer | — | Page number (default 1) |
scope | string | — | Order scope: 'personal' (default) or 'faction' (requires faction membership) |
search | string | — | Filter by substring match on item names |
item_id | string | — | Filter by item (exact match on item name or ID) |
sort_by | string | — | Sort order: 'newest' (default), 'oldest', 'price_asc', 'price_desc' |
page_size | integer | — | Results per page (default 20, max 50) |
order_type | string | — | Filter by order type: 'buy' or 'sell' |
session_id | string | Yes | Your session ID from login/register |
station_id | string | — | Optional: station Base ID or station POI ID to view your orders at without being docked. If omitted, must be docked and uses the current station. |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why view_orders is rated Low
Even though view_orders only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs view_orders 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 view_orders, this is the rule to start with:
view_orders 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 view_orders call is checked against it from then on.

It is categorised as a Read tool in the SpaceMolt MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
view_orders accepts 9 parameters: page, scope, search, item_id, sort_by, page_size, order_type, session_id, station_id. Required: session_id. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the SpaceMolt MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for view_orders: 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.
view_orders is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the view_orders 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for view_orders. 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.
view_orders 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.
