# rhino_dimension_linear Add a linear dimension between two points. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `rhino_dimension_linear`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/easehee-rhino-mcp/rhino-dimension-linear ## Facts - Tool: `rhino_dimension_linear` - Server: Rhino (`easehee/rhino-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/easehee-rhino-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/EaseHee/rhino-mcp - 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": "rhino_dimension_linear", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why rhino_dimension_linear is rated Medium This tool creates a new dimension object in the Rhino model, modifying the design document by adding geometry annotations. While this is reversible (dimensions can be deleted), it does alter the model state. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or involve financial transactions, so Write is appropriate. From the tool's own definition: "Tool adds a linear dimension between two points to Rhino. The verb 'Add' combined with the description indicates object creation/addition to the model, which is a reversible write operation. Dimensions are model annotations that can be deleted or modified." ## Use case AI agents use rhino_dimension_linear to create or update resources in Rhino, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Rhino environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**.
