What reorder_niagara_module does on Unreal-MCP
AI agents use reorder_niagara_module to create or update resources in Unreal-MCP, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Unreal-MCP environment.
Why reorder_niagara_module is rated Medium
This tool modifies VFX module configuration in a way that can be undone (reverted, re-ordered again), making it Write rather than Destructive. The empty description reduces confidence slightly. Medium severity reflects that misuse could corrupt complex visual effects pipelines, but the effects are reversible and confined to a specific subsystem.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'reorder_niagara_module' indicates it modifies the sequence or arrangement of Niagara VFX modules. The 'reorder_' prefix suggests a reversible structural change to Niagara systems (particle effects in Unreal Engine 5).
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs reorder_niagara_module 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 reorder_niagara_module, this is the rule to start with:
reorder_niagara_module 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Unreal-MCP, apply this rule, and every reorder_niagara_module call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about reorder_niagara_module
reorder_niagara_module is a write tool on the Unreal MCP server. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Unreal-MCP MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Unreal MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for reorder_niagara_module: 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 Unreal-MCP. Nothing to install.
reorder_niagara_module is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the reorder_niagara_module 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for reorder_niagara_module. 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.
reorder_niagara_module is provided by the Unreal MCP server (aadeshrao123/unreal-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
