Why get_level_info needs a policy

This tool retrieves metadata about a level without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward read operation that queries state information from the O3DE editor. The low severity reflects minimal risk from misuse—an AI agent retrieving level information cannot cause harm to the project or environment.

How to control get_level_info

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and O3de, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_level_info:

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

get_level_info 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 O3de — 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.
