WHAT IT DOES

What search_models does on 3d Ar Studio

AI agents call search_models to retrieve information from 3d Ar Studio without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`limit`	integer	—	How many results to return. Default 12.
`query`	string	—	Words to match against names, categories and tags. Omit to browse.
`catalogue`	string	—	A different catalogue URL to search instead of the default.

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why search_models is rated Low

Even though search_models only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs search_models safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and 3d Ar Studio, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For search_models, this is the rule to start with:

search_models Allowed

search_models is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "search_models": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect 3d Ar Studio, apply this rule, and every search_models call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about search_models

What does the search_models tool do? +

Search the ready-made 3D model catalogue by name, category and tag. The default catalogue is a few hundred public-domain (CC0) props, free to use commercially. Faster and more predictable than generating when a common object will do: search first, generate what you cannot find. It is categorised as a Read tool in the 3d Ar Studio MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

What parameters does search_models accept? +

search_models accepts 3 parameters: limit, query, catalogue. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on search_models? +

Register the 3d Ar Studio MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for search_models: 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 3d Ar Studio. Nothing to install.

What risk level is search_models? +

search_models is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit search_models? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the search_models 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 search_models completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for search_models. 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 search_models? +

search_models is provided by the 3d Ar Studio MCP server (3d-ar-studio-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
