How to control unity_packages_list ↓

AI agents call unity_packages_list to retrieve information from Unity MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

This tool retrieves and displays information about installed packages. It performs no side effects, does not modify data, execute code, delete resources, or commit financial transactions. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent can only view package information, which poses no security threat to the system or project state.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'unity_packages_list' and description 'List all installed Unity packages with their name, version, source, and status' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no modifications, deletions, or executions.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access unity_packages_list gives an agent:

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_packages_list:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "unity_packages_list": {}
  }
}

unity_packages_list is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

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