WHAT IT DOES

What screenshot_orbit does on Sbox

AI agents call screenshot_orbit to retrieve information from Sbox without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why screenshot_orbit is rated Low

The tool captures screenshots (reads/queries visual data) by orbiting the scene camera around a GameObject. It has no side effects on game state, data, or external systems — it only retrieves visual information.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs screenshot_orbit 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 screenshot_orbit, this is the rule to start with:

screenshot_orbit Allowed

screenshot_orbit is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "screenshot_orbit": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

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