WHAT IT DOES

What layer_reorder does on Mcp Anything

AI agents use layer_reorder to create or update resources in Mcp Anything, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Mcp Anything environment.

RISK

Why layer_reorder is rated Medium

Layer reordering modifies the state of a document or project by changing layer order, which is reversible (Write category). Severity is medium because incorrect reordering could disrupt a user's work, but the change can be undone. Confidence is moderate (0.7) due to empty description; if this tool operated on financial data or performed destructive operations, classification would change.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'layer_reorder' suggests reordering layers, likely in a graphics/animation context. No description provided, but based on sibling tools (animation_*, camera_*, build_*) this appears to be a graphics manipulation tool.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs layer_reorder safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Anything, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For layer_reorder, this is the rule to start with:

layer_reorder Rate-limited

layer_reorder 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.
