What uv_add_layer does on Blender Copilot MCP Server
AI agents use uv_add_layer 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.
Why uv_add_layer is rated Medium
This tool creates a new UV layer (a new data structure within a 3D object) without deleting or overwriting existing layers. UV layers are essential for texture mapping in 3D models. The operation is reversible (the layer can be deleted), modifying object properties rather than executing arbitrary code or performing destructive operations.
From the tool's definition uv_add_layer: 'Add a new UV layer to an object.' — creates/adds a new UV layer, which is a reversible modification to the object's UV mapping data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs uv_add_layer 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 uv_add_layer, this is the rule to start with:
uv_add_layer 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 uv_add_layer call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about uv_add_layer
Add a new UV layer to an object. 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.
Register the Blender Copilot MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for uv_add_layer: 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.
uv_add_layer 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 uv_add_layer 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 uv_add_layer. 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.
uv_add_layer 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.
