WHAT IT DOES

What measure_distance does on Pypi:best Cad

AI agents call measure_distance to retrieve information from Pypi:best Cad without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why measure_distance is rated Low

The tool computes geometric measurements (distance and angle) between two points in a CAD drawing. This is a read-only query with no data modification, execution of commands, or destructive potential.

From the tool's definition 计算两点之间的直线距离和角度 — 'calculates straight-line distance and angle between two points'; purely a measurement/query operation with no side effects.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs measure_distance safely

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

measure_distance Allowed

measure_distance is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "measure_distance": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Pypi:best Cad, apply this rule, and every measure_distance call is checked against it from then on.
