What remove_niagara_node_pin does on Unreal-MCP
AI agents call remove_niagara_node_pin to permanently remove resources in Unreal-MCP, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why remove_niagara_node_pin is rated Critical
Removing a dynamic pin from a node modifies the graph structure in a way that is likely irreversible without manual re-creation, constituting a destructive operation. While the blast radius is limited to a single pin in a Niagara scratch pad graph, this cannot be trivially undone by the AI agent itself.
From the tool's definition 'Remove a dynamic pin from any node in a scratch pad graph' — 'remove' indicates irreversible deletion of a pin configuration

The rule that runs remove_niagara_node_pin safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Unreal-MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For remove_niagara_node_pin, this is the rule to start with:
remove_niagara_node_pin is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Unreal-MCP, apply this rule, and every remove_niagara_node_pin call is checked against it from then on.
