import_generated_asset · MCP-Blender MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What import_generated_asset does on MCP-Blender

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why import_generated_asset needs a policy

Importing an asset modifies the Blender project by adding new geometry/content to the scene. This is a reversible write operation—the imported asset can be deleted or the project discarded. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or trigger financial transactions.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Import a generated 3D asset from Rodin', which creates or adds new content to the Blender project. The sibling tool 'execute_code' and the server's focus on direct Blender control indicate these tools modify the 3D scene state.

Verdict

import_generated_asset Rate-limited

import_generated_asset 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.

How do I block import_generated_asset completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for import_generated_asset. 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.
