WHAT IT DOES

What gd_hover does on Godot Breakpoint

AI agents call gd_hover to retrieve information from Godot Breakpoint without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why gd_hover is rated Low

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs gd_hover 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 gd_hover, this is the rule to start with:

gd_hover Allowed

gd_hover is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "gd_hover": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Godot Breakpoint, apply this rule, and every gd_hover call is checked against it from then on.
