What set_camera does on Aos
AI agents use set_camera 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.
Why set_camera is rated Medium
Based on the tool name 'set_camera', this likely modifies the viewport camera position/orientation in Rhino, which is a reversible write operation. The server context involves controlling Rhino 8 geometry and viewports.
From the tool's definition Tool name: set_camera. Description is empty/uninformative.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs set_camera 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 set_camera, this is the rule to start with:
set_camera 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 Aos, apply this rule, and every set_camera call is checked against it from then on.
