cloneObject · Maige 3d MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What cloneObject does on Maige 3d

AI agents use cloneObject to create or update resources in Maige 3d — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Maige 3d environment.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why cloneObject needs a policy

The cloneObject tool creates a new copy of a 3D object, which is a reversible write operation. While it modifies the scene state, it does not delete, destroy, or execute arbitrary code. The severity is medium because uncontrolled duplication could degrade performance or create unwanted scene clutter, but the effects remain bounded and reversible (the clone can be deleted via deleteObject).

From the tool's definition Tool performs 'Duplicate an object' - a reversible creation operation that modifies scene state by adding new data without overwriting or removing existing data.

Verdict

cloneObject Rate-limited

cloneObject 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.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: every tool call is checked against your rule before it reaches Maige 3d, so you can run agents against it safely.

FAQ

Questions about cloneObject

What does the cloneObject tool do? +

Duplicate an object with an optional position offset. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Maige 3d MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on cloneObject? +

Register the Maige 3d MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for cloneObject: 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 Maige 3d. Nothing to install.

What risk level is cloneObject? +

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

Can I rate-limit cloneObject? +

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

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

cloneObject is provided by the Maige 3d MCP server (m-ai-gexr/mcp-webgpu). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
