Create a new SpriteAtlas asset at the given path.
AI agents use unity_spriteatlas_create 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.
This tool creates a new asset file in the Unity project, which is a reversible write operation. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete assets, or move money. The severity is medium rather than low because creating assets in a development environment could potentially affect project builds or asset pipelines if misused by an agent, but the operation remains reversible via deletion.
From the tool's definition Tool creates a new SpriteAtlas asset at a specified path. The verb 'Create' and the description explicitly state asset creation, which is a write operation that modifies the project state by adding new data.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access unity_spriteatlas_create 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_spriteatlas_create:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"unity_spriteatlas_create": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "unity_spriteatlas_create_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}unity_spriteatlas_create stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a new SpriteAtlas asset at the given path. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Unity MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Unity MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for unity_spriteatlas_create: 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.
unity_spriteatlas_create is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the unity_spriteatlas_create 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for unity_spriteatlas_create. 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.
unity_spriteatlas_create 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.
