WHAT IT DOES

What unity_vfx_list does on Unity MCP Server

AI agents call unity_vfx_list 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.

RISK

Why unity_vfx_list is rated Low

This is a read-only operation that queries the project's Visual Effect Graph assets. It has no side effects, does not execute code, does not modify data, and does not delete or move resources. The blast radius if misused by an AI agent is minimal—it merely provides information about existing assets.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'unity_vfx_list' and description 'List all Visual Effect Graph assets in the project' indicate a query operation that retrieves and enumerates existing assets without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs unity_vfx_list 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_vfx_list, this is the rule to start with:

unity_vfx_list Allowed

unity_vfx_list is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "unity_vfx_list": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Unity MCP Server, apply this rule, and every unity_vfx_list call is checked against it from then on.
