What Jettison_Cargo does on SpaceTraders MCP Server

AI agents call Jettison_Cargo to permanently remove resources in SpaceTraders MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Why Jettison_Cargo needs a policy

Jettisoning cargo irreversibly destroys/removes items from the ship's inventory. Once thrown into space, the cargo cannot be recovered, making this a destructive operation. The blast radius is high because an AI agent could accidentally jettison valuable trade goods or mission-critical cargo, causing significant in-game economic loss.

From the tool's definition Jettison (throw away) cargo from your ship — permanently discards cargo items from the ship's inventory with no indication of reversibility
