`slot`	integer	Yes	Save slot number (0-99)
`metadata`	object	—	Optional metadata to store with the save (e.g. player name, level, timestamp)

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why save_game_state is rated Medium

This tool persists game state data to storage (a numbered slot), which is a write operation. It is reversible—saved states can be overwritten or deleted. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or move money.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'save_game_state' and description 'Save the current game state to a numbered slot with optional metadata' indicates creation and storage of data in a reversible manner.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs save_game_state safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Godot, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For save_game_state, this is the rule to start with:

save_game_state Rate-limited

save_game_state 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.
