What get_pe_header does on x64dbg MCP Server

AI agents call get_pe_header to retrieve information from x64dbg MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why get_pe_header needs a policy

Parsing PE headers is a read-only operation that retrieves structural information about a Windows executable (sections, imports, exports, timestamps, etc.). It does not execute code, modify data, delete resources, or trigger side effects. While it supports reverse engineering activities, the tool itself only performs static analysis and information retrieval, making it a Read category risk with low severity.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_pe_header' and description 'Parse the PE header of a loaded module' indicate reading and analyzing static executable metadata without modification or execution.
