WHAT IT DOES

What set_tint does on Sbox

AI agents use set_tint 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 set_tint is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies game object state by changing renderer tint values. It is reversible (tint can be changed again or reset to original values), so it falls under Write rather than Destructive or Execute.

From the tool's definition set_tint sets the renderer tint colour on one or many objects. This modifies visual properties (colour) of game objects via ModelRenderer/SkinnedModelRenderer, which is a reversible state change to object properties.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

set_tint Rate-limited

set_tint 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.

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

FAQ

Questions about set_tint

What does the set_tint tool do? +

Set the renderer tint colour on one object (id) or many (ids) at once. Works on any ModelRenderer/SkinnedModelRenderer. Pass the colour as. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Sbox MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on set_tint? +

Register the Sbox MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for set_tint: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Sbox. Nothing to install.

What risk level is set_tint? +

set_tint is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit set_tint? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the set_tint rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block set_tint completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for set_tint. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides set_tint? +

set_tint is provided by the Sbox MCP server (sbox-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
