editor-launch

[compact alias of launch_editor] Opens the Godot editor GUI for a project. Use when visual inspection or manual editing of scenes/scripts is needed. Opens a new window on the host system. Requires: project directory with project.godot file.

Part of the Gopeak MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

gopeak Execute Risk 3/5

AI agents invoke editor-launch to trigger processes or run actions in Gopeak. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.

editor-launch can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. Intercept enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.

Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

What does the editor-launch tool do? +

[compact alias of launch_editor] Opens the Godot editor GUI for a project. Use when visual inspection or manual editing of scenes/scripts is needed. Opens a new window on the host system. Requires: project directory with project.godot file.. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Gopeak MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on editor-launch? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for editor-launch. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Gopeak MCP server.

What risk level is editor-launch? +

editor-launch is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit editor-launch? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the editor-launch rule in your Intercept 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.

How do I block editor-launch completely? +

Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for editor-launch. 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.

What MCP server provides editor-launch? +

editor-launch is provided by the Gopeak MCP server (gopeak). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
