## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "ft_combine_shape_keys",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why ft_combine_shape_keys is rated Medium

This tool creates and modifies shape key data within a Blender project. Shape keys are animatable deformations that can be added, updated, or removed without permanent data loss. The operation is reversible (shape keys can be deleted or modified later), placing it in the Write category rather than Destructive.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool creates/combines shape keys into a new shape key - modifying the Blender scene's shape key data structure reversibly"

## Use case

AI agents use ft_combine_shape_keys 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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
