## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

## Why set_skybox is rated Medium

This tool modifies scene state by setting the skybox, which is a reversible Write operation. It does not execute arbitrary code (Execute), delete data (Destructive), or move money (Financial). Medium severity reflects that incorrect skybox settings could break visual rendering or scene aesthetics, but changes are easily reversible and localized to graphics/environment rather than core game logic or data loss.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'set_skybox' and description 'Set the scene' indicates modification of scene environment properties."

## Use case

AI agents use set_skybox 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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Sbox:

```json
