What run_all_automation_tests does on Unreal
AI agents invoke run_all_automation_tests 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.
Why run_all_automation_tests is rated High
This tool triggers execution of automation tests within Unreal Engine, which are external operations that can perform various side effects including asset modifications, shader compilation, code generation, and system resource consumption.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'run_all_automation_tests' and description 'Run all automation tests' indicate execution of arbitrary test suites. The 'run_' prefix and verb 'Run' denote triggering external operations whose effects depend on test configuration and implementation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs run_all_automation_tests safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Unreal, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For run_all_automation_tests, this is the rule to start with:
run_all_automation_tests stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Unreal, apply this rule, and every run_all_automation_tests call is checked against it from then on.

run_all_automation_tests is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the run_all_automation_tests 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.
