What create_stipple_pointcloud does on tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server
AI agents use create_stipple_pointcloud 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.

It is reversible (the created node can be deleted). Severity is medium because misuse could clutter or corrupt a TouchDesigner project network, but it does not execute arbitrary code or irreversibly destroy data.

create_stipple_pointcloud 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_stipple_pointcloud call is checked against it from then on.
