What query_scene_components does on Cocos
AI agents call query_scene_components to retrieve information from Cocos without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why query_scene_components is rated Low
This tool retrieves or inspects information about scene components without modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It falls squarely into the Read category as a data query operation. The blast radius if misused is minimal—an agent could only gather information about the scene structure, not alter it.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'query_scene_components' and description 'Query available scene components' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects. The verb 'query' and 'available' suggest passive data inspection.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs query_scene_components safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Cocos, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For query_scene_components, this is the rule to start with:
query_scene_components is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Cocos, apply this rule, and every query_scene_components call is checked against it from then on.
