Why unity_amplify_focus_node needs a policy

This tool triggers a UI/view action in the Unity Editor — centering and zooming the editor view to a node. It doesn't read data, write/modify assets, or cause destructive effects; it executes an editor operation (view manipulation). Severity is low since misuse only affects the editor viewport with no data or asset impact.

From the tool's definition Focus the Amplify Shader Editor view on a specific node, centering and optionally zooming to it

POLICY

How to control unity_amplify_focus_node

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Unity MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for unity_amplify_focus_node:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "unity_amplify_focus_node": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "unity_amplify_focus_node_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

unity_amplify_focus_node stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register Unity MCP Server — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

FAQ

Questions about unity_amplify_focus_node

What does the unity_amplify_focus_node tool do? +

Focus the Amplify Shader Editor view on a specific node, centering and optionally zooming to it. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Unity MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on unity_amplify_focus_node? +

Register the Unity MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for unity_amplify_focus_node: 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 Unity MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is unity_amplify_focus_node? +

unity_amplify_focus_node is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit unity_amplify_focus_node? +

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

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

unity_amplify_focus_node is provided by the Unity MCP Server MCP server (anklebreaker-studio/unity-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Unity MCP Server tool call.

Start from Unity MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
