Search through canonical code examples from popular open-source mods like Create, Botania, Applied Energistics 2. These are real-world, battle-tested implementations with AI-generated explanations. Use this when you need proven patterns from successful mods.
AI agents call search_mod_examples to retrieve information from Mcmodding without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries existing documentation and code examples from open-source mods. It has no side effects, does not execute code, create, modify, or delete data. The AI can only read example implementations and their explanations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—worst case, an AI gets incorrect information about how to write mod code, but the tool itself cannot harm systems or data.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'search_mod_examples' and description state it 'search through' and 'use this when you need' code examples—pure retrieval operations with no modification, deletion, or execution capability mentioned.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access search_mod_examples gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mcmodding, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for search_mod_examples:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"search_mod_examples": {}
}
} search_mod_examples is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Search through canonical code examples from popular open-source mods like Create, Botania, Applied Energistics 2. These are real-world, battle-tested implementations with AI-generated explanations. Use this when you need proven patterns from successful mods. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcmodding MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Mcmodding MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for search_mod_examples: 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 Mcmodding. Nothing to install.
search_mod_examples 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 search_mod_examples 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 search_mod_examples. 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.
search_mod_examples is provided by the Mcmodding MCP server (ogmatrix/mcmodding-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
