WHAT IT DOES

What set_active_layout does on Pypi:best Cad

AI agents invoke set_active_layout to trigger actions in Pypi:best Cad. 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.

RISK

Why set_active_layout is rated High

This tool switches the active layout in AutoCAD, which is an external application state change. It triggers an operation in AutoCAD rather than merely reading data or writing/modifying document content. It is not destructive, financial, or a simple read, so Execute is the most appropriate category. Severity is medium because misuse could disrupt the current working state of a CAD session.

From the tool's definition 切换到指定布局 (Switch to specified layout) — triggers an active layout change operation in AutoCAD

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs set_active_layout safely

set_active_layout Rate-limited

set_active_layout stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

    }
  }
}
