- Install: `npx -y @keeveeg/godot-mcp`
- Homepage: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@keeveeg/godot-mcp
- Risk category: Execute (High risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 2 (1 required)
- Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `path` | string | yes | NavigationRegion node path |
| `properties` | object | no | Bake configuration (cell_size, cell_height, agent_radius, etc.) |

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": "bake_navigation_mesh",
    "arguments": {
      "path": "<path>"
    }
  }
}
```

## Why bake_navigation_mesh is rated High

Baking a navigation mesh is a computational operation that processes/generates data (the nav mesh) for a scene node. It triggers an external engine operation with side effects on the scene state, fitting Execute. It's not purely destructive (prior mesh can be rebaked) but it does modify the NavigationRegion's mesh data.

From the tool's own definition: "Bake the navigation mesh for a NavigationRegion"

Risk signals: Accepts file system path (path)

## Use case

AI agents invoke bake_navigation_mesh to trigger actions in Godot. 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 Godot:

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