Why blender_help needs a policy

The name suggests a help/documentation lookup tool (Read), but with no description available, confidence is low. Help tools typically retrieve information with no side effects, making this low severity. Classifying as Other due to insufficient information to confidently assign a more specific category.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'blender_help' and description is empty or uninformative.

How to control blender_help

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "blender_help": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "blender_help_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 60,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

blender_help gets a rate cap, and everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Blender — 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.
