stream_animation_task

Stream updates for an animation task using server-sent events.

How to control stream_animation_task ↓

AI agents call stream_animation_task to retrieve information from Meshy AI MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

This tool retrieves real-time status information about an existing animation task via server-sent events. It has no side effects—it only queries and relays task progress data. While it is paired with task creation tools (create_animation_task, etc.) on the same server, this specific tool performs read-only monitoring of task state, placing it squarely in the Read category with low severity.

From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'stream' and description states it 'streams updates' for a task. The verb 'stream' combined with 'updates' indicates passive retrieval/monitoring of task status, not creation, modification, deletion, or execution of new operations.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access stream_animation_task gives an agent:

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

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

stream_animation_task 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 Meshy AI MCP Server — 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.

What does the stream_animation_task tool do? +

Stream updates for an animation task using server-sent events. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Meshy AI MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on stream_animation_task? +

Register the Meshy AI MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for stream_animation_task: 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 Meshy AI MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is stream_animation_task? +

stream_animation_task is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit stream_animation_task? +

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

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

stream_animation_task is provided by the Meshy AI MCP Server MCP server (pasie15/meshy-ai-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
