WHAT IT DOES

What add_light does on Blender Copilot MCP Server

AI agents use add_light to create or update resources in Blender Copilot MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Blender Copilot MCP Server environment.

RISK

Why add_light is rated Medium

This tool creates a new light object in a Blender scene, which is a reversible modification. It does not delete, execute arbitrary code, or trigger external operations—it simply adds a scene asset. The action can be easily undone in Blender, making it Write-category.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'add_light' and description 'Add a light to the scene' indicate creation of a new scene element without destructive or irreversible effects.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs add_light safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Blender Copilot MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For add_light, this is the rule to start with:

add_light Rate-limited

add_light 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.
