What validate_scene does on Cocos

AI agents call validate_scene 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 validate_scene is rated Low

The validate_scene tool performs a diagnostic check on the current scene to identify issues. This is a non-destructive, side-effect-free query operation. It retrieves and analyzes scene data to report problems but does not create, modify, delete, or execute external operations. The tool is purely informational and fits the 'Read' category for operations that retrieve or query data without side effects.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'validate_scene' and description 'Validate current scene for issues' indicate a validation/checking operation. Validation is inherently a read-only operation that inspects the scene state without modifying, deleting, or executing arbitrary code.

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

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "validate_scene": {}
  }
}
