What boolean_intersection does on Mcp Freecad

AI agents use boolean_intersection to create or update resources in Mcp Freecad — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Mcp Freecad environment.

Why boolean_intersection needs a policy

Boolean intersection creates a new object from the overlapping volume of two existing objects. This is a reversible modeling operation (the original objects can be restored), so it falls under Write rather than Destructive. Misuse could corrupt a CAD model but is generally recoverable.

How to control boolean_intersection

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Freecad, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for boolean_intersection:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "boolean_intersection": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "boolean_intersection_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

boolean_intersection 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.

  1. Create a free account and register Mcp Freecad — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

Questions about boolean_intersection

What does the boolean_intersection tool do? +

Perform boolean intersection of two objects. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Mcp Freecad MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on boolean_intersection? +

Register the Mcp Freecad MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for boolean_intersection: 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 Mcp Freecad. Nothing to install.

What risk level is boolean_intersection? +

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

Can I rate-limit boolean_intersection? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the boolean_intersection 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 boolean_intersection completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for boolean_intersection. 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 boolean_intersection? +

boolean_intersection is provided by the Mcp Freecad MCP server (jango-blockchained/mcp-freecad). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Mcp Freecad tool call.

Start from Mcp Freecad, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
