WHAT IT DOES

What set_grid_visible does on Cocos

AI agents use set_grid_visible 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 set_grid_visible is rated Medium

Toggling grid visibility is a UI preference change that modifies editor state. It does not retrieve data (Read), execute arbitrary code (Execute), permanently delete content (Destructive), or involve financial operations (Financial). It is reversible and represents a minor configuration change. Classified as Write rather than Other because it actively modifies application state.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'set_grid_visible' with description 'Show/hide grid'. This modifies the visual editor state (grid visibility setting) in the Cocos Creator editor.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

set_grid_visible Rate-limited

set_grid_visible 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 set_grid_visible call is checked against it from then on.
