How to control get_player_summary ↓

AI agents call get_player_summary to retrieve information from PersonalizationMCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

This tool retrieves personal profile information (status, avatar, location) from what appears to be a gaming platform like Steam. While it is a Read operation with no side effects, the severity is medium because it exposes personally identifiable information and location data that could be misused for profiling, tracking, or social engineering if an agent were compromised or acting maliciously.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_player_summary' and description 'Get detailed player profile information including status, avatar, and location' indicate retrieval of personal data without modification.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_player_summary gives an agent:

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_player_summary": {}
  }
}

get_player_summary is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register PersonalizationMCP — 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.
