- Homepage: https://github.com/quangdang46/uefn-verse-mcp
- Risk category: Read (Low risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "does_asset_exist",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why does_asset_exist is rated Low

This tool performs a read-only check to determine asset existence. It retrieves state information from the UEFN editor without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing operations. The query has no side effects and poses minimal risk if misused by an AI agent.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'does_asset_exist' and description 'Check if an asset exists' indicate a query operation that retrieves information without modification."

## Use case

AI agents call does_asset_exist to retrieve information from Uefn without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Uefn:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "does_asset_exist": {}
  }
}
```

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
