## Facts

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `filename` | string | no | Output CSV filename (default: auto-generated) |

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

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

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "start_csv_profiling",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why start_csv_profiling is rated High

This tool triggers an external operation (CSV profiling capture) whose effects depend on runtime behavior and what is being profiled. While not destructive or financially harmful, it executes a system operation that could impact engine performance or reveal sensitive performance characteristics.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'start_csv_profiling' and description 'Start CSV profiling capture for performance regression analysis' indicates initiation of a profiling/monitoring operation that captures performance data during Unreal Engine execution."

Risk signals: Accepts file system path (filename)

## Use case

AI agents invoke start_csv_profiling 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": {
    "start_csv_profiling": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "start_csv_profiling_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
