AI agents call get_uid to retrieve information from Godot MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This is a straightforward read operation that retrieves file metadata (UID/unique identifier) from a Godot project. There is no indication of data modification, deletion, code execution, or financial impact. The tool has minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent, as it only returns informational data about project files.
From the tool's definition The tool name and description explicitly indicate it 'Get[s] the UID for a specific file' in a Godot project. This is a retrieval operation with no side effects—it queries metadata about a file without modifying, deleting, or executing anything.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get the UID for a specific file in a Godot project (for Godot 4.4+). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Godot MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Godot MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_uid: 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 Godot MCP. Nothing to install.
get_uid is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_uid 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_uid. 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.
get_uid is provided by the Godot MCP server (jamesdowzard/godot-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
