WHAT IT DOES

What project_setting_set does on Godot

AI agents use project_setting_set 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 project_setting_set is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies project settings in the project.godot configuration file. While changes are theoretically reversible (settings can be changed back), misuse could disable critical features, break project functionality, or introduce security vulnerabilities.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'project_setting_set' and description 'Set a project setting in project.godot' indicate modification of project configuration file.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

project_setting_set Rate-limited

project_setting_set 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.

    }
  }
}

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

Register the Godot MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for project_setting_set: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Godot. Nothing to install.

What risk level is project_setting_set? +
