WHAT IT DOES

What inset_faces does on Blender Copilot MCP Server

AI agents use inset_faces 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 inset_faces is rated Medium

The inset_faces tool modifies 3D mesh data by applying an inset operation to faces. This is a geometric transformation that alters the mesh structure but remains reversible (can be undone via undo history or by re-applying with inverse parameters). It does not delete data irreversibly, execute arbitrary code, or create financial/external side effects.

From the tool's definition Tool modifies mesh geometry through inset operation with parameters for thickness and depth, creating a reversible transformation of face geometry.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

inset_faces Rate-limited

inset_faces 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 Blender Copilot MCP Server, apply this rule, and every inset_faces call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about inset_faces

What does the inset_faces tool do? +

Inset all faces of a mesh. Thickness controls inset distance, depth controls push in/out. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Blender Copilot MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on inset_faces? +

Register the Blender Copilot MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for inset_faces: 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 Blender Copilot MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is inset_faces? +

inset_faces is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit inset_faces? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the inset_faces 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.

How do I block inset_faces completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for inset_faces. 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.

What MCP server provides inset_faces? +

inset_faces is provided by the Blender Copilot MCP Server MCP server (dwgx/blender-copilot). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
