What donate_info does on Kiln
AI agents call donate_info to retrieve information from Kiln without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why donate_info is rated Low
The name indicates a query or retrieval operation ('info') rather than modification, deletion, or execution. Without a description, confidence is reduced, but the naming pattern suggests read-only access to donation metadata. In the context of a 3D printer control server, this likely retrieves informational content with no side effects.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'donate_info' suggests retrieval of donation-related information. Description is empty, limiting evidence.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs donate_info safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Kiln, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For donate_info, this is the rule to start with:
donate_info 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 Kiln, apply this rule, and every donate_info call is checked against it from then on.
