AI agents call kotor_lookup_tlk to retrieve information from KotorMCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves dialog text by string reference (strref) from a game resource file (dialog.tlk). It performs a lookup query without modifying, executing, or deleting anything. The explicit 'Read-only' designation confirms it belongs in the Read category. Severity is low because it accesses game resource data with no blast radius to system state or user data.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Read-only' and the function is to 'resolve a strref to display text from dialog.tlk', which is a pure data retrieval operation with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Use when you need to resolve a strref to display text from dialog.tlk. Read-only. It is categorised as a Read tool in the KotorMCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Kotor MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for kotor_lookup_tlk: 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 KotorMCP. Nothing to install.
kotor_lookup_tlk 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 kotor_lookup_tlk 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 kotor_lookup_tlk. 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.
kotor_lookup_tlk is provided by the Kotor MCP server (th3w1zard1/kotormcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
