WHAT IT DOES

What set_particle_emission_shape does on Godot

AI agents use set_particle_emission_shape 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
`path`	string	Yes	Particle node path
`size`	array	—	Shape size parameters
`shape`	string	Yes	Emission shape type

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why set_particle_emission_shape is rated Medium

This tool modifies particle system settings (emission shape), which is a reversible configuration change. It does not delete data (Destructive), execute arbitrary code (Execute), or involve financial operations (Financial). The sibling tools (add_animation_track, add_audio_bus, etc.) all create/modify engine resources, confirming this server manages game engine state.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'set_particle_emission_shape' and description 'Set the emission shape for a particle system' indicate modification of particle system configuration in a Godot game engine context.

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

set_particle_emission_shape Rate-limited

set_particle_emission_shape 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.

LIMIT THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

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

FAQ

Questions about set_particle_emission_shape

What does the set_particle_emission_shape tool do? +

Set the emission shape for a particle system. 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_particle_emission_shape accept? +

set_particle_emission_shape accepts 3 parameters: path, size, shape. Required: path, shape. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on set_particle_emission_shape? +

Register the Godot MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for set_particle_emission_shape: 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_particle_emission_shape? +

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

Can I rate-limit set_particle_emission_shape? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the set_particle_emission_shape 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_particle_emission_shape completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for set_particle_emission_shape. 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_particle_emission_shape? +

set_particle_emission_shape 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.
