## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "call_preset_function",
    "arguments": {
      "preset_name": "<preset_name>",
      "function_name": "<function_name>"
    }
  }
}
```

## Why call_preset_function is rated High

This tool executes functions exposed through Unreal Engine's Remote Control Preset system. Since it calls arbitrary functions, the effects are entirely dependent on what function is invoked — could range from benign reads to destructive operations. The most severe applicable category is Execute, as it triggers external operations whose effects depend on arguments.

From the tool's own definition: "'Call a function exposed via a Remote Control Preset'"

## Use case

AI agents invoke call_preset_function to trigger actions in Unreal. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Unreal:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "call_preset_function": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "call_preset_function_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

## 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`
