create_script · Godot Mcp Pilot MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What create_script does on Godot Mcp Pilot

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why create_script needs a policy

This tool performs a reversible Write action—it creates new code files in the Godot project. While not destructive (files can be deleted), it modifies the project state by adding executable code artifacts. Severity is high because GDScript files can contain arbitrary logic that affects game behavior, and an AI agent could generate malicious or broken code.

From the tool's definition Tool creates a new GDScript file, which is a persistent artifact in the game project. The description explicitly states 'Create a new GDScript file' with template selection capability.
