Why blender_lighting needs a policy

Based on the tool name and the server context (AI-powered control of Blender to create, manipulate, and automate 3D scenes), 'blender_lighting' most likely creates or modifies lighting setups in a Blender scene. This would be a Write operation (reversible modification of scene data).

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'blender_lighting'; description is empty and uninformative.

How to control blender_lighting

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_lighting:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "blender_lighting": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "blender_lighting_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

blender_lighting stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. 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.
