The rule that runs asset_gen_icon safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Godot Breakpoint, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For asset_gen_icon, this is the rule to start with:
asset_gen_icon 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 Godot Breakpoint, apply this rule, and every asset_gen_icon call is checked against it from then on.
