WHAT IT DOES

What rename_gameobject does on Sbox

AI agents use rename_gameobject to create or update resources in Sbox, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Sbox environment.

RISK

Why rename_gameobject is rated Medium

Renaming a game object is a reversible, non-destructive modification of data. It changes an attribute but does not delete content, execute arbitrary code, move money, or trigger uncontrolled external operations. The blast radius is minimal: a misused rename affects only the naming metadata of a single object and can be easily undone.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Change the display name of a GameObject' — a direct modification operation that updates metadata (the display name). This is a write operation as it modifies existing game object state.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs rename_gameobject safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Sbox, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For rename_gameobject, this is the rule to start with:

rename_gameobject Rate-limited

rename_gameobject 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.

  "tools": {
    "rename_gameobject": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "rename_gameobject_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,

        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

LIMIT THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Sbox, apply this rule, and every rename_gameobject call is checked against it from then on.
