Why get_avatar_parameters needs a policy

This tool retrieves or queries data (avatar parameters) without modifying state, triggering external operations, or causing irreversible changes. It is a pure read operation similar to 'get_avatar_list' and 'get_avatar_name' on the same server. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only learn what parameters exist, not modify avatar behavior or user experience.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_avatar_parameters' and description 'Get a list of parameters available on the current avatar' indicate a read-only query operation that retrieves metadata about avatar configuration.

How to control get_avatar_parameters

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and VRChat MCP OSC, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_avatar_parameters:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_avatar_parameters": {}
  }
}

get_avatar_parameters is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register VRChat MCP OSC — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
