WHAT IT DOES

What unity_animation_set_clip_settings does on Unity MCP Server

AI agents use unity_animation_set_clip_settings to create or update resources in Unity MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Unity MCP Server environment.

RISK

Why unity_animation_set_clip_settings is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies animation clip configuration data within a Unity project. While changes are reversible (Write rather than Destructive), misuse could corrupt animation behavior, affect game feel, or cause animation glitches. The blast radius is contained to animation assets rather than project-wide, yielding medium severity.

From the tool's definition Tool modifies animation clip properties (looping, root motion, mirroring, speed, frame rate). The description explicitly states 'Set animation clip settings', indicating data modification.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs unity_animation_set_clip_settings safely
