What unity_scene_info does on Unity MCP Server
AI agents call unity_scene_info to retrieve information from Unity MCP Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why unity_scene_info is rated Low
This tool retrieves metadata about the current scene state (name, path, dirty flag, game objects). It performs no side effects, creates no new data, executes no code, and modifies nothing. It is purely informational querying, which is the definition of a Read operation. Severity is low because misuse cannot cause harm—an AI agent using this tool cannot damage projects or systems.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'unity_scene_info' and description 'Get information about the currently open scene(s), including name, path, dirty state, and root game objects' indicate data retrieval only.

The rule that runs unity_scene_info safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Unity MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For unity_scene_info, this is the rule to start with:
unity_scene_info is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Unity MCP Server, apply this rule, and every unity_scene_info call is checked against it from then on.
