WHAT IT DOES

What animation_list does on Godot

AI agents call animation_list to retrieve information from Godot without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why animation_list is rated Low

This tool retrieves and queries animation data from a Godot scene without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a pure read operation that has no potential for causing harm or unintended consequences in the game engine or project state.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'animation_list' and description 'List all animations in a scene' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs animation_list safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Godot, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For animation_list, this is the rule to start with:

animation_list Allowed

animation_list is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

policy.json

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

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

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