## Facts

- Tool: `configureNormalLayer`
- Server: Spline MCP Server (`aydinfer/spline-mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/aydinfer-spline-mcp-server.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/aydinfer/spline-mcp-server
- Risk category: Write (Medium risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "configureNormalLayer",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why configureNormalLayer is rated Medium

Based on naming patterns and server context (Spline 3D design tool), this tool likely modifies normal map layer configuration—a reversible design change. Without an explicit description, confidence is moderate. The tool does not appear to execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or involve financial operations. Write is the most appropriate classification for a design configuration tool in this context.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'configureNormalLayer' suggests modifying layer properties in a 3D design context. Sibling tools like 'addMaterialLayer', 'addCamera', and 'addHanaEffect' are all Write operations that create or modify design elements. No description provided."

## Use case

AI agents use configureNormalLayer to create or update resources in Spline MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Spline MCP Server environment.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Spline MCP Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "configureNormalLayer": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "configurenormallayer_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
