ai_align_objects · SVG Canvas MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What ai_align_objects does on SVG Canvas MCP

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why ai_align_objects needs a policy

This tool modifies the spatial arrangement of SVG objects by suggesting and presumably applying alignment transformations. This is a reversible Write operation—it changes object properties (position/alignment) but does not delete data or execute arbitrary code. The blast radius is low since misalignment can be easily corrected.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'ai_align_objects' and description indicating it 'proposes alignment methods for selected objects' suggests modification of object positioning within the SVG canvas.

ai_align_objects Rate-limited

ai_align_objects 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.

FAQ

Questions about ai_align_objects

What does the ai_align_objects tool do? +

선택한 객체들의 정렬 방법을 제안합니다. It is categorised as a Write tool in the SVG Canvas MCP MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on ai_align_objects? +

Register the SVG Canvas MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for ai_align_objects: 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 SVG Canvas MCP. Nothing to install.

What risk level is ai_align_objects? +

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

Can I rate-limit ai_align_objects? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the ai_align_objects 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 ai_align_objects completely? +

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

ai_align_objects is provided by the SVG Canvas MCP server (kim62210/svg-canvas-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
