WHAT IT DOES

What node_add_to_group does on Godot

AI agents use node_add_to_group to create or update resources in Godot, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Godot environment.

RISK

Why node_add_to_group is rated Medium

The tool performs a reversible modification operation (adding a node to a group), which is characteristic of Write operations. While it manipulates scene structure, the action is not destructive and can be undone. Without a detailed description, confidence is moderate but sufficient to classify as Write rather than Execute, as it appears to be a direct object manipulation rather than arbitrary code execution.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'node_add_to_group' indicates adding a node to a group, which modifies scene state in Godot. Description is empty, reducing confidence.

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

node_add_to_group Rate-limited

node_add_to_group 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.
