Why blender_search_tools needs a policy

Despite the empty description reducing confidence slightly, the semantic meaning of 'search' in the context of a Blender control server most naturally maps to querying or listing available tools/resources. Search operations are typically non-destructive and return data without side effects. The lack of explicit language indicating modification, execution, or deletion supports the Read category.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'blender_search_tools' suggests a search/discovery function. No description provided, but 'search' verbs typically indicate read-only query operations that retrieve information without modifying state.

How to control blender_search_tools

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_search_tools:

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

blender_search_tools 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 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.
