WHAT IT DOES

What reset_component does on Cocos

AI agents use reset_component 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.

RISK

Why reset_component is rated Medium

Resetting a component to default values modifies existing data (overwrites current property values with defaults), but this is generally reversible via undo in an editor context. It does not delete data irreversibly, hence Write rather than Destructive.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs reset_component 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 reset_component, this is the rule to start with:

reset_component Rate-limited

reset_component 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.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Cocos, apply this rule, and every reset_component call is checked against it from then on.

What risk level is reset_component? +

Can I rate-limit reset_component? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the reset_component rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block reset_component completely? +
