What viewport_set_size does on Godot
AI agents use viewport_set_size 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.
Why viewport_set_size is rated Medium
This tool appears to modify viewport properties in an active Godot project, which is a reversible change to engine state. It does not delete data (not Destructive), execute arbitrary code (not Execute), move money (not Financial), or trigger external operations (not Execute). The modification of rendering configuration qualifies as Write.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'viewport_set_size' indicates modification of viewport dimensions in the Godot engine; the empty description prevents direct confirmation of side effects, but the 'set_' prefix and presence among sibling tools that modify engine state…
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs viewport_set_size 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 viewport_set_size, this is the rule to start with:
viewport_set_size 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 viewport_set_size call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about viewport_set_size
viewport_set_size is a write tool on the Godot MCP server. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Godot MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Godot MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for viewport_set_size: 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.
viewport_set_size is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the viewport_set_size rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for viewport_set_size. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
viewport_set_size is provided by the Godot MCP server (chanceflow/godot-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
