scale_objects_2d

What scale_objects_2d does on Aos

AI agents invoke scale_objects_2d to trigger actions in Aos. 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 scale_objects_2d is rated High

Scaling objects is a geometric transformation that modifies the model state irreversibly in practical terms (scaling cannot be easily undone without user intervention). However, it does not delete or overwrite data (Destructive), nor does it create new data permanently (Write). It executes a transformation operation whose effects are state-dependent and would require explicit undo actions.

The rule that runs scale_objects_2d safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Aos, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For scale_objects_2d, this is the rule to start with:
