## Facts

- Tool: `node_set_property`
- Server: Godot (`chanceflow/godot-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/chanceflow-godot-mcp.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/ChanceFlow/godot-mcp
- Risk category: Write (Medium risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited

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

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

## Why node_set_property is rated Medium

The tool name clearly indicates a property-setting operation on Godot nodes, which is a reversible modification (Write category). Severity is medium because modifying node properties could affect game behavior, scene state, or engine configuration, but changes are typically undoable in the editor.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'node_set_property' indicates modification of node properties in Godot. No description provided, but context of godot-mcp (game engine interaction) and sibling tools (animation_set_keyframe, audio_configure_bus, autoload_add) that create/modify…"

## Use case

AI agents use node_set_property 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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

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

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "node_set_property": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "node_set_property_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
