What set_entity_material does on Pypi:best Cad
AI agents use set_entity_material 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 set_entity_material is rated Medium
This tool modifies drawing data by changing material assignments on CAD entities. This is a reversible operation (materials can be reassigned or removed), so it falls under Write rather than Destructive. The severity is medium because misuse could corrupt drawing aesthetics or properties, but the changes are reversible and the blast radius is limited to visual/material properties of individual entities.
From the tool's definition Tool description '为实体分配材质' translates to 'Assign material to entity'. The verb 'assign' indicates modification of entity properties in a CAD drawing.

The rule that runs set_entity_material 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 set_entity_material, this is the rule to start with:
set_entity_material 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 set_entity_material call is checked against it from then on.
