WHAT IT DOES

What ui_add_container does on Godot

AI agents use ui_add_container 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 ui_add_container is rated Medium

The name pattern 'ui_add_*' combined with the 'add' verb indicates this tool creates or adds UI elements to the Godot scene tree. This is a reversible Write operation (containers can be deleted). Severity is medium because misuse could corrupt the scene structure, but changes are undoable via undo/redo.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'ui_add_container' suggests adding/creating a UI container element. The 'add' verb indicates a Write operation that creates new UI objects. No description provided, reducing confidence.

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

ui_add_container Rate-limited

ui_add_container 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.
