Retrieve detailed metadata about a file or directory in the Unity project.
AI agents call get_file_info to retrieve information from Unity MCP Integration without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns information about files and directories without modifying, deleting, or executing anything. It is a straightforward read operation with minimal security risk. The low severity reflects that metadata retrieval has limited blast radius even if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Retrieve detailed metadata about a file or directory' — a retrieval operation with no side effects. The verb 'Retrieve' and the focus on metadata access indicate read-only functionality.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_file_info gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Unity MCP Integration, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_file_info:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_file_info": {}
}
}get_file_info is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Retrieve detailed metadata about a file or directory in the Unity project. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Unity MCP Integration MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Unity MCP Integration MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_file_info: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Unity MCP Integration. Nothing to install.
get_file_info is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_file_info rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_file_info. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
get_file_info is provided by the Unity MCP Integration MCP server (quazaai/unitymcpintegration). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
