add_shrinkwrap_modifier · Blender MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What add_shrinkwrap_modifier does on BlenderMCP

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why add_shrinkwrap_modifier needs a policy

Based on the naming convention consistent with sibling tools (add_*_modifier), this tool adds a Shrinkwrap modifier to a Blender object, which projects a mesh onto the surface of another object. This is a Write operation as it modifies object data reversibly. The empty description lowers confidence, but the pattern is consistent across all sibling tools which are modifier-adding Write operations.

Verdict

add_shrinkwrap_modifier Rate-limited

add_shrinkwrap_modifier 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.
