WHAT IT DOES

What set_debug_options does on Godot

AI agents use set_debug_options to create or update resources in Godot, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Godot environment.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`optimize`	boolean	—	Enable optimizations
`debug_build`	boolean	—	Enable debug build (includes symbols)
`release_debug`	boolean	—	Release build with debug info

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why set_debug_options is rated Medium

The tool modifies configuration settings (debug and optimization options) in a Godot project. This is a reversible write operation — settings can be changed back. It does not execute code, delete data, or involve finances. Severity is medium because misconfigured debug/optimization settings could affect build output or runtime behavior.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs set_debug_options 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 set_debug_options, this is the rule to start with:

set_debug_options Rate-limited

set_debug_options 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.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Godot, apply this rule, and every set_debug_options call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about set_debug_options

What does the set_debug_options tool do? +

Configure debug and optimization options. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Godot MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

What parameters does set_debug_options accept? +

set_debug_options accepts 3 parameters: optimize, debug_build, release_debug. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on set_debug_options? +

Register the Godot MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for set_debug_options: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Godot. Nothing to install.

What risk level is set_debug_options? +

set_debug_options is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit set_debug_options? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the set_debug_options 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.

How do I block set_debug_options completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for set_debug_options. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides set_debug_options? +

set_debug_options is provided by the Godot MCP server (@keeveeg/godot-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
