## Facts

- Tool: `node_get_properties`

- Homepage: https://github.com/ChanceFlow/godot-mcp
- Risk category: Read (Low risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Allowed

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "node_get_properties",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why node_get_properties is rated Low

This tool retrieves properties from a Godot scene node without modifying state. The naming convention 'get_*' is a standard read operation pattern in game engine APIs. No evidence suggests data modification, code execution, or destructive effects. The empty description prevents higher confidence, but the pattern of similar tools on the server and the explicit 'get' prefix strongly indicate read-only semantics.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'node_get_properties' indicates retrieval of node properties. The 'get' prefix is a strong signal of read-only behavior."

## Use case

AI agents call node_get_properties 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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Godot:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "node_get_properties": {}
  }
}
```
