What clear_selection_set does on Pypi:best Cad
AI agents use clear_selection_set to create or update resources in Pypi:best Cad, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Pypi:best Cad environment.
Why clear_selection_set is rated Medium
The tool clears/empties a selection set in AutoCAD but explicitly does not remove entities — it only deselects them. This is a reversible state change (modifying the selection set object), so it qualifies as Write. It has low severity since no geometry is altered or deleted.
From the tool's definition 清空指定选择集(不移除实体,只清空选择)

The rule that runs clear_selection_set safely

clear_selection_set 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 Pypi:best Cad, apply this rule, and every clear_selection_set call is checked against it from then on.
