Search the name->hash catalogs (846 vehicles, 1054 peds, 114 weapons) by substring.
AI agents call catalog_search to retrieve information from GTAV-CLAUDE-MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves catalog data (vehicle, pedestrian, and weapon hashes) in response to a search query. It has no side effects—it only queries and returns information. There is no code execution, state modification, or destructive potential. The low severity reflects that searching a catalog poses minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool performs a search operation on catalogs by substring matching. The description explicitly states it 'Search[es] the name->hash catalogs' without any modification, creation, deletion, or execution of game state.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Search the name->hash catalogs (846 vehicles, 1054 peds, 114 weapons) by substring. It is categorised as a Read tool in the GTAV-CLAUDE-MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the GTAV-CLAUDE- MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for catalog_search: 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 GTAV-CLAUDE-MCP. Nothing to install.
catalog_search 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 catalog_search 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 catalog_search. 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.
catalog_search is provided by the GTAV-CLAUDE- MCP server (tabbedscamper/gtav-claude-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
