## Facts

- Tool: `move_asset`
- Server: Cocos (`caravanglory/cocos-mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/caravanglory-cocos-mcp-server.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/caravanglory/cocos-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": "move_asset",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why move_asset is rated Medium

Moving an asset modifies project state by changing its file path or location, but this operation is typically reversible (can be undone via version control or editor undo). It does not irreversibly delete data, execute arbitrary code, or commit financial obligations.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'move_asset' and description 'Move an asset to another location' indicate a reversible modification operation that changes the location/organization of assets within the Cocos Creator project structure."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

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