What cs_dbg_restart does on Godot Breakpoint
AI agents invoke cs_dbg_restart to trigger actions in Godot Breakpoint. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
Why cs_dbg_restart is rated High
This tool executes a specific operation (debug session restart) via the Debug Adapter Protocol. While not destructive in the sense of deleting data, it actively triggers a state change in the debugger, making it an Execute category tool rather than Read. The severity is medium because misuse could disrupt development workflows but has limited blast radius outside the debugging context.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Restart the current C# debug session. Uses the DAP'. Restarting a debug session is an operational action that triggers external effects (stopping and restarting the debugger) whose consequences depend on the state of the debugging…
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs cs_dbg_restart 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 cs_dbg_restart, this is the rule to start with:
cs_dbg_restart stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times 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 cs_dbg_restart call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about cs_dbg_restart
Restart the current C# debug session. Uses the DAP. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Godot Breakpoint MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the Godot Breakpoint MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for cs_dbg_restart: 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 Godot Breakpoint. Nothing to install.
cs_dbg_restart is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the cs_dbg_restart 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 cs_dbg_restart. 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.
cs_dbg_restart is provided by the Godot Breakpoint MCP server (jlivingston-Cipher/godot-breakpoint-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
