AI agents call i18n_scan_code to retrieve information from Shipeasy without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool reads code via abstract syntax tree traversal to identify and return translatable strings. It has no network access and produces no side effects on the codebase—it merely queries and extracts information. This fits the Read category: it retrieves data with no mutations or execution of external operations.
From the tool's definition Tool performs 'AST-walk the repo and return candidate translatable strings' with 'Local-only — no network', indicating it scans and retrieves data without modification or destructive side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
AST-walk the repo and return candidate translatable strings (JSX text, string literals, template strings). Local-only — no network. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Shipeasy MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Shipeasy MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for i18n_scan_code: 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 Shipeasy. Nothing to install.
i18n_scan_code 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 i18n_scan_code 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 i18n_scan_code. 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.
i18n_scan_code is provided by the Shipeasy MCP server (shipeasy-ai/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
i18n_scan_code is one line of Shipeasy's registry record.
The record carries the whole server: verified identity, auth posture, risk grade, every tool classified, recommended policy — re-checked continuously.
