WHAT IT DOES

What set_scene_script does on Godot Mcp Pilot

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why set_scene_script needs a policy

This tool creates or modifies scene configurations by attaching/detaching scripts, which are reversible changes to project data. While it does affect code execution indirectly (by binding executable scripts to nodes), the tool itself performs data modification rather than direct code execution.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it can 'Attach a GDScript to a node in a scene, or detach the current script' — this modifies scene structure and behavior by adding or removing executable code bindings.
