# view_image A read tool on the Pypi:best Cad MCP server. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `view_image`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/view-image ## Facts - Tool: `view_image` - Server: Pypi:best Cad (`pypi:best-cad-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp.md - Install: `npx -y pypi:best-cad-mcp` - Homepage: https://github.com/LokmenoWer/best-cad-mcp - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "view_image", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why view_image is rated Low The tool appears to retrieve and display image data from AutoCAD drawings, which is a read-only operation with no side effects. No data is modified, deleted, or executed. The empty description lowers confidence slightly, but the name and server context (CAD automation and drawing exports) strongly suggest this is a visualization/retrieval function rather than a creation, modification, or destructive operation. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'view_image' suggests retrieving or displaying image data; description is empty but context indicates this is a CAD visualization server where viewing is a non-destructive operation." ## Use case AI agents call view_image 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. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Pypi:best Cad: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "view_image": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on Pypi:best Cad (320) - `clear_spatial_annotations` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/clear-spatial-annotations.md - `clear_understanding_cache` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/clear-understanding-cache.md - `delete_entities` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/delete-entities.md - `delete_entity` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/delete-entity.md - `delete_layer` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/delete-layer.md - `delete_named_view` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/delete-named-view.md - `delete_selection_set` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/delete-selection-set.md - `erase_selection_entities` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/erase-selection-entities.md - `purge_drawing` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/purge-drawing.md - `remove_hyperlink` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/remove-hyperlink.md - `build_drawing_ir` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/build-drawing-ir.md - `check_runtime_environment` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/check-runtime-environment.md - `execute_cad_plan` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/execute-cad-plan.md - `execute_query` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/execute-query.md - `execute_sql_query` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/execute-sql-query.md - `highlight_entities` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/highlight-entities.md - `pan` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/pan.md - `plot_preview` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/plot-preview.md - `plot_to_device` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/plot-to-device.md - `regen` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/regen.md - `reload_xref` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/reload-xref.md - `render_drawing_view` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/render-drawing-view.md - `restart_mcp` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/restart-mcp.md - `restore_named_view` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/restore-named-view.md - `revolve_region` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/revolve-region.md - `select_on_screen` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/select-on-screen.md - `send_command` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/send-command.md - `set_active_layout` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/set-active-layout.md - `set_active_ucs` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/set-active-ucs.md - `set_variable` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp/set-variable.md - …and 290 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-lokmenower-best-cad-mcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
