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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "query_view_mode_2d_3d",

## Why query_view_mode_2d_3d is rated Low

This tool queries the current state of the Cocos Creator editor's view mode (2D or 3D) without modifying any data, creating any objects, executing scripts, or causing irreversible changes. It is a simple read operation with minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'query' and description states 'Get current view mode' — a pure retrieval operation with no side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call query_view_mode_2d_3d 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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "query_view_mode_2d_3d": {}
  }
}
```

## 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`
