WHAT IT DOES

What draw_line does on farshid-mcp-imageProcessing

AI agents use draw_line to create or update resources in farshid-mcp-imageProcessing — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your farshid-mcp-imageProcessing environment.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why draw_line needs a policy

This tool writes/modifies image data by drawing a line on it. It's reversible in the sense that the original image can be retained, but it does create/modify a file. No code execution, deletion, or financial action is involved. Severity is low since it only affects local image files.

From the tool's definition 'Draw a line' — modifies an image by adding a line to it
