Parse a Nuke .nk script into a structured AST with nodes, properties, wiring, and DAG edges.
AI agents call parse_nuke to retrieve information from VFX Parsers MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool reads and parses an existing Nuke script file into a structured representation (AST). It only retrieves and structures data without modifying any files, consistent with the server description stating 'without modifying files'. No side effects are introduced.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Parse a Nuke .nk script into a structured AST with nodes, properties, wiring, and DAG edges. It is categorised as a Read tool in the VFX Parsers MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the VFX Parsers MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for parse_nuke: 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 VFX Parsers MCP Server. Nothing to install.
parse_nuke is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the parse_nuke 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for parse_nuke. 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.
parse_nuke is provided by the VFX Parsers MCP Server MCP server (mabaam/mcp-vfx-parsers). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
