WHAT IT DOES

What set_scene_unique_name does on Godot

AI agents use set_scene_unique_name 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
`unique`	boolean	—	Enable (true) or disable (false) unique name (default: true)
`node_path`	string	Yes	Node path within the scene

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why set_scene_unique_name is rated Medium

This tool modifies node metadata (the unique name flag) within a Godot scene, which is a reversible write operation. It does not delete data (Destructive), execute arbitrary code (Execute), create financial obligations (Financial), or merely read state (Read).

From the tool's definition Tool description states "Toggle the unique name flag on a node", indicating modification of a node's properties/metadata. The term "toggle" and "flag" confirm state modification rather than retrieval.

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

set_scene_unique_name Rate-limited

set_scene_unique_name 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_scene_unique_name call is checked against it from then on.
