RISK

Why ae_set_keyframe_easing is rated Medium

This tool modifies existing keyframe data by applying easing curves, which is a reversible write operation within the After Effects project. It changes animation properties but does not execute code, delete data, or have financial implications. Misuse has minimal blast radius as it only affects animation timing within a project.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs ae_set_keyframe_easing safely

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

ae_set_keyframe_easing Rate-limited

ae_set_keyframe_easing 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.
