## Facts

- Tool: `connect_lighting_console_osc`
- Server: tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server (`@dpantani/tdmcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp.md
- Install: `npx -y @dpantani/tdmcp`
- Homepage: https://github.com/Pantani/tdmcp
- Risk category: Write (Medium risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "connect_lighting_console_osc",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why connect_lighting_console_osc is rated Medium

The tool creates an OSC command scaffold (a Write action), but does not execute or transmit commands to hardware. The safety gate and no-direct-DMX clause prevent it from being Execute. Severity is medium because misconfigured OSC scaffolding could inadvertently trigger lighting changes when later activated, but the tool itself only writes configuration.

From the tool's own definition: "'Create a safety-gated OSC command scaffold' and 'without sending direct DMX' — the tool creates/writes a scaffold structure for OSC commands but explicitly does not send live DMX signals"

## Use case

AI agents use connect_lighting_console_osc to create or update resources in tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server environment.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
