What replace_frida_script does on Algorithmaide

AI agents use replace_frida_script to create or update resources in Algorithmaide — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Algorithmaide environment.

Medium Risk

Why replace_frida_script needs a policy

This tool writes/overwrites a Frida script file on the device filesystem. While 'replace' is a write operation (creating or modifying content), the prior script content is overwritten which could be considered destructive. However, it's a file write to a known path that could potentially be restored, placing it in Write.

How to control replace_frida_script

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Algorithmaide, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for replace_frida_script:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "replace_frida_script": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "replace_frida_script_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

replace_frida_script stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Algorithmaide — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

Questions about replace_frida_script

What does the replace_frida_script tool do? +

Replace a Frida script under /data/system/junge/<pkg>/frida and verify the write. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Algorithmaide MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on replace_frida_script? +

Register the Algorithmaide MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for replace_frida_script: 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 Algorithmaide. Nothing to install.

What risk level is replace_frida_script? +

replace_frida_script is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit replace_frida_script? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the replace_frida_script 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.

How do I block replace_frida_script completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for replace_frida_script. 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.

What MCP server provides replace_frida_script? +

replace_frida_script is provided by the Algorithmaide MCP server (vwww-droid/algorithmaide-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Algorithmaide tool call.

Start from Algorithmaide, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
