# duplicate_network Copy a node or whole COMP (and all its contents) to a new node, placed in the source Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `duplicate_network`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/duplicate-network ## Facts - Tool: `duplicate_network` - Server: Aos (`@hybridlabor-api/aos`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos.md - Install: `npx -y @hybridlabor-api/aos` - Homepage: git+https://github.com/hybridlabor-api/aos.git - 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": "duplicate_network", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why duplicate_network is rated Medium The tool performs a copy/duplication operation, which is reversible and creates new data rather than destroying or permanently modifying existing structures. This is a Write action (creates new objects). Severity is medium because while duplications are reversible and don't cause data loss, they can clutter projects, consume resources, or be used to obscure malicious components within a visual system. From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Copy a node or whole COMP (and all its contents) to a new node' — this creates new data structures (duplicated nodes/components) within the TouchDesigner project." ## Use case AI agents use duplicate_network to create or update resources in Aos, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Aos environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Aos: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "duplicate_network": { "limits": [ { "counter": "duplicate_network_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 30, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## Other tools on Aos (718) - `archive_project` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/archive-project.md - `clear_clip_flags` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/clear-clip-flags.md - `clear_layer` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/clear-layer.md - `close_window` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/close-window.md - `delete_clip_markers` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/delete-clip-markers.md - `delete_color_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/delete-color-group.md - `delete_color_version` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/delete-color-version.md - `delete_face` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/delete-face.md - `delete_fusion_comp_on_clip` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/delete-fusion-comp-on-clip.md - `delete_layer` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/delete-layer.md - `delete_markers` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/delete-markers.md - `delete_media_pool_clips` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/delete-media-pool-clips.md - `delete_objects` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/delete-objects.md - `delete_project` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/delete-project.md - `delete_render_job` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/delete-render-job.md - `delete_stills` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/delete-stills.md - `delete_take` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/delete-take.md - `delete_td_node` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/delete-td-node.md - `delete_timeline_clips` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/delete-timeline-clips.md - `delete_track` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/delete-track.md - `manage_checkpoint` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/manage-checkpoint.md - `remoteos_manage_instance` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/remoteos-manage-instance.md - `remove_background_clip` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/remove-background-clip.md - `repair_network` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/repair-network.md - `reset_all_grades` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/reset-all-grades.md - `unlink_media_pool_clips` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/unlink-media-pool-clips.md - `add_render_job` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/add-render-job.md - `ae_render_active_comp` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/ae-render-active-comp.md - `apply_glsl_top_mapping` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/apply-glsl-top-mapping.md - `apply_transform` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos/apply-transform.md - …and 688 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/hybridlabor-api-aos.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
