WHAT IT DOES

What editor_redo does on Breakpoint

AI agents use editor_redo 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.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`scope`	string	—	Which history to step: 'scene' (default, the edited scene) or 'global' (editor-wide)

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why editor_redo is rated Medium

An AI agent can call editor_redo faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Breakpoint by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs editor_redo safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Breakpoint, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For editor_redo, this is the rule to start with:

editor_redo Rate-limited

editor_redo 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.
