WHAT IT DOES

What resource_list does on Godot

AI agents call resource_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 resource_list is rated Low

The 'list' suffix strongly suggests data retrieval with no side effects. Within a game engine context, listing resources (animations, autoloads, etc.) is a non-destructive read operation. Although the description is empty, the naming convention and parallels with other list tools on the server provide high confidence this is a Read operation. No evidence of modification, deletion, execution, or financial impact.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'resource_list' with context from sibling tools (animation_list, autoload_list) indicates a listing/querying function. The server's purpose is interaction with Godot, and this tool fits the pattern of read-only resource enumeration.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

resource_list Allowed

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

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "resource_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 resource_list call is checked against it from then on.
