## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "set_data_asset_properties",
    "arguments": {}

}
```

## Why set_data_asset_properties is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies data (Unreal Engine data asset properties) in a reversible manner. It does not delete or destroy assets, execute arbitrary code, or perform financial operations. The 'high' severity reflects that misuse could alter critical game asset configurations affecting rendering, gameplay, or project structure, though changes remain reversible via undo or re-editing.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'set_data_asset_properties' combined with description stating it performs property modification ('Set multiple properties') with save operation. The tool modifies Unreal Engine data assets through a single load-and-save cycle."

## Use case

AI agents use set_data_asset_properties 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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Unreal-MCP:

```json
