unity_selection_focus_scene_view

Control the Scene View camera: frame a GameObject, set pivot/rotation/zoom, toggle orthographic.

How to control unity_selection_focus_scene_view ↓

AI agents invoke unity_selection_focus_scene_view to trigger actions in Unity MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

High Risk

This tool triggers external operations within the Unity Editor — manipulating the Scene View camera state (pivot, rotation, zoom, orthographic mode). It doesn't merely read data; it actively changes the editor's viewport state. While not destructive to assets, it executes editor-side operations that affect the working environment, placing it in Execute.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access unity_selection_focus_scene_view 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_selection_focus_scene_view:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "unity_selection_focus_scene_view": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "unity_selection_focus_scene_view_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

unity_selection_focus_scene_view 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.

  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.
