equip · Integration Quest MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What equip does on Integration Quest

AI agents use equip to create or update resources in Integration Quest — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Integration Quest environment.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why equip needs a policy

The tool modifies game character state (equipped items) rather than merely reading data, so it is Write rather than Read. It is reversible (items can be unequipped or re-equipped), so it is not Destructive. The blast radius is limited to a single-player RPG game state with no external systems or real-world impact. Severity is low because misuse only affects the user's game progression.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Equip a connector (weapon), error handler (armor), or accessory from inventory' — this modifies character state by changing equipped items, which is a reversible state change within the game context.

Verdict

equip Rate-limited

equip stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
