13 tools. 5 can modify or destroy data without limits.
1 destructive tool with no built-in limits. Policy required.
Last updated:
Destructive tools (delete_td_node) permanently delete resources. There is no undo. An agent calling these in a retry loop causes irreversible damage.
Write operations (create_td_node, update_td_node_parameters) modify state. Without rate limits, an agent can make hundreds of changes in seconds — faster than any human can review or revert.
Execute tools (exec_node_method, execute_python_script) trigger processes with side effects. Builds, notifications, workflows — all fired without throttling.
Intercept sits between your agent and Touchdesigner. Every tool call checked against your policy before it executes — so your agent can do its job without breaking things.
npx -y @policylayer/intercept scan -- npx -y @touchdesigner-mcp-server delete_td_node:
rules:
- action: deny Destructive tools should never be available to autonomous agents without human approval.
create_td_node:
rules:
- rate_limit: 30/hour Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.
describe_td_tools:
rules:
- rate_limit: 60/minute Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.
Yes. The Touchdesigner server exposes 1 destructive tools including delete_td_node. These permanently remove resources with no undo. Intercept blocks destructive tools by default so they never reach the upstream server.
The Touchdesigner server has 2 write tools including create_td_node, update_td_node_parameters. Set rate limits in your policy file -- for example, rate_limit: 10/hour prevents an agent from making more than 10 modifications per hour. Intercept enforces this at the transport layer.
13 tools across 4 categories: Destructive, Execute, Read, Write. 8 are read-only. 5 can modify, create, or delete data.
One line change. Instead of running the Touchdesigner server directly, prefix it with Intercept: intercept -c io-github-8beeeaaat-touchdesigner-mcp-server.yaml -- npx -y @touchdesigner-mcp-server. Download a pre-built policy from policylayer.com/policies/io-github-8beeeaaat-touchdesigner-mcp-server and adjust the limits to match your use case.
Starter policies available for each. Same risk classification, same one-command setup.
Set budgets, approvals, and hard limits across MCP servers.
