# control_set_size_flags

Set a Control's container size flags and/or stretch ratio (undoable). 'horizontal'/'vertical' are SizeFlags bitmasks (1=fill, 2=expand, 3=expand_fill, 4=shrink_center, 8=shrink_end). Provide at least one of horizontal/vertical/stretch_ratio.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `path` | string | yes | Control node path relative to the scene root |
| `vertical` | integer | no | size_flags_vertical bitmask |

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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "control_set_size_flags",
    "arguments": {
      "path": "<path>"
    }
  }
}
```

## Why control_set_size_flags is rated Medium

This tool modifies GUI layout properties (size flags and stretch ratio) of a UI Control element. It is reversible (marked 'undoable'), making it a Write operation rather than Execute or Destructive. The severity is medium because misuse could alter UI layouts in unintended ways, but the blast radius is limited to visual layout changes without data loss or command execution.

From the tool's own definition: "The tool 'Set a Control's container size flags and/or stretch ratio (undoable)' modifies UI control properties."

Risk signals: Accepts file system path (path)

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "control_set_size_flags": {
      "limits": [
        {

          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
