# swap_operator Change an operator Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `swap_operator`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/swap-operator ## Facts - Tool: `swap_operator` - 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": "swap_operator", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why swap_operator is rated Medium This tool modifies project state by changing/replacing an operator, which is a reversible write operation. It affects the visual system configuration but does not delete data irreversibly (Destructive), execute arbitrary code (Execute), move money (Financial), or merely read data (Read). From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'swap_operator' and description 'Change an operator' indicate modification of existing operators in a TouchDesigner project without permanent deletion." ## Use case AI agents use swap_operator 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": { "swap_operator": { "limits": [ { "counter": "swap_operator_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 30, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## Other tools on tdmcp — TouchDesigner MCP server (333) - `delete_td_node` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/delete-td-node.md - `manage_checkpoint` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/manage-checkpoint.md - `refresh_asset_previews` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/refresh-asset-previews.md - `repair_network` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/repair-network.md - `apply_glsl_top_mapping` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/apply-glsl-top-mapping.md - `audio_fingerprint_to_visual` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/audio-fingerprint-to-visual.md - `auto_repair_loop` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/auto-repair-loop.md - `batch_operations` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/batch-operations.md - `build_chop_chain` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/build-chop-chain.md - `build_pop_chain` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/build-pop-chain.md - `build_sop_geometry` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/build-sop-geometry.md - `connect_daydream_cloud` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/connect-daydream-cloud.md - `control_timeline_transport` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/control-timeline-transport.md - `create_ai_mirror` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/create-ai-mirror.md - `create_body_bubbles` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/create-body-bubbles.md - `create_cue_sequencer` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/create-cue-sequencer.md - `create_depth_pop_field` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/create-depth-pop-field.md - `create_energy_structure` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/create-energy-structure.md - `create_engine_comp` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/create-engine-comp.md - `create_gpu_particle_field` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/create-gpu-particle-field.md - `create_growth_system` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/create-growth-system.md - `create_interactive_projection_mapping` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/create-interactive-projection-mapping.md - `create_led_mapper` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/create-led-mapper.md - `create_llm_chain` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/create-llm-chain.md - `create_panic` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/create-panic.md - `create_particle_flock` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/create-particle-flock.md - `create_phrase_locked_cue_engine` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/create-phrase-locked-cue-engine.md - `create_sdf_field` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/create-sdf-field.md - `create_set_navigator` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/create-set-navigator.md - `create_setlist_runner` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp/create-setlist-runner.md - …and 303 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-pantani-tdmcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry: - Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack` - Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md) - Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events` --- Source: the PolicyLayer MCP registry — one continuously verified record per MCP server.
