AI agents call loadInstallation 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.
The tool performs memory activation for inspection purposes without any side effects on game files or system state. It enables subsequent read operations but makes no modifications itself. This is a classic Read operation.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states "Read-only; does not modify disk." The function loads a game installation into memory for analysis by subsequent tools, which is a retrieval/preparation operation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Use when you need to activate an installation in memory for subsequent tools. Read-only; does not modify disk. 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 loadInstallation: 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.
loadInstallation 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 loadInstallation 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 loadInstallation. 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.
loadInstallation 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.
