## Facts

- Tool: `set_keyframe`
- Server: Blender Copilot MCP Server (`dwgx/blender-copilot`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/dwgx-blender-copilot.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/dwgx/blender-copilot
- Risk category: Write (Medium risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited

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

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

## Why set_keyframe is rated Medium

The tool creates or modifies animation keyframe data in the Blender scene, which is reversible (keyframes can be deleted or adjusted). This is a Write operation as it creates new data structures within the scene. Severity is medium because misuse by an agent could corrupt an animation timeline or produce unintended motion, but the effect is confined to the current project and fully reversible.

From the tool's own definition: "Insert a keyframe on an object property at a specific frame — creates animation keyframe data that modifies the Blender scene state."

## Use case

AI agents use set_keyframe 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)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Blender Copilot MCP Server:

```json

  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "set_keyframe": {
      "limits": [
        {

## 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`
