Why zone_select_contents needs a policy

This tool selects actors within a zone volume, which is a UI/editor selection operation. It queries and highlights objects but does not modify, delete, or execute any logic. Selection in an editor context is a read-like operation with no persistent side effects, though it does change editor state transiently.

How to control zone_select_contents

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

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

zone_select_contents 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 Uefn — 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.
