What create_pop_growth does on tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server
AI agents use create_pop_growth 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.
Why create_pop_growth is rated Medium
This tool creates a new baseCOMP and builds a particle/growth system within it. It is a Write operation (creates data/nodes reversibly) with no indication of code execution on the host system or irreversible destruction. Severity is medium because it modifies the project structure, but changes are contained within the TouchDesigner environment and can be undone.
From the tool's definition 'Build a POP-native reaction-diffusion / growth system inside a fresh baseCOMP' — creates a new node/component structure inside TouchDesigner
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs create_pop_growth safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For create_pop_growth, this is the rule to start with:
create_pop_growth 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 tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server, apply this rule, and every create_pop_growth call is checked against it from then on.
