What create_strange_attractor does on tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server

AI agents use create_strange_attractor 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_strange_attractor is rated Medium

This tool creates and wires together a network of TouchDesigner nodes (CHOPs, SOPs, COMPs, TOPs) — a reversible write/creation operation that builds new visual pipeline structures. It does not delete existing data, execute arbitrary shell commands, or involve financial transactions. The primary action is constructing/generating new nodes and connections within the TD project, which is a Write-category action.

Questions about create_strange_attractor

What does the create_strange_attractor tool do? +

Build a strange-attractor deferred geometry generator: a Script CHOP integrates a chosen ODE system (Lorenz / Aizawa / Halvorsen) with configurable sub-steps and maintains a rolling ring buffer of trail_length points. A Script SOP converts the channels into one open polyline; an optional Tube SOP thickens it for shaded render inside a Geometry COMP + Camera + Light + Render TOP pipeline. Closing Roadmap Milestone 4. Complements create_growth_system (L-systems) and create_particle_flock (boids) as the deterministic CPU-geometry idiom. With TD timeline paused the integrator pauses too (time-dependent) — resume playback to continue. Returns a summary plus a JSON block with the container path, output path, exposed controls, errors, warnings, and an inline preview. It is categorised as a Write tool in the tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on create_strange_attractor? +

Register the tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_strange_attractor: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is create_strange_attractor? +

create_strange_attractor is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit create_strange_attractor? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_strange_attractor rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block create_strange_attractor completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for create_strange_attractor. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides create_strange_attractor? +

create_strange_attractor is provided by the tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server MCP server (@dpantani/tdmcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
