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

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

## Why anim_tree_add_node is rated Medium

This tool creates a new node within an AnimationTree, which is a reversible modification to the animation system state. It does not delete data (Destructive), execute arbitrary code (Execute), move money (Financial), or merely read data (Read). It fits Write because it creates/modifies animation tree structure.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name and description indicate 'Add a node to an AnimationTree' — creates a new node in an animation tree structure. This is a create/modify operation that alters the animation tree configuration."

## Use case

AI agents use anim_tree_add_node to create or update resources in Godot Breakpoint, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Godot Breakpoint environment.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
