Create a Part Plane (flat rectangular face). Args: length: Plane length (X direction). Defaults to 10.0. width: Plane width (Y direction). Defaults to 10.0. name: Object name. Auto-generated if None. doc_name: Target document. Uses active document if None. Returns: Dictionary with created object ...
AI agents use create_plane to create or update resources in FreeCAD Robust MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your FreeCAD Robust MCP Server environment.
This tool creates and persists new data (a geometric plane object) in the FreeCAD document. It is a Write operation because it creates a new entity that can be saved and modified later, but the action is reversible (the plane can be deleted). It is not Execute because it doesn't run arbitrary scripts or commands—it only creates a specific, well-defined geometric primitive.
From the tool's definition Tool creates a new 3D object (Part Plane) with configurable dimensions and name. Description states 'Create a Part Plane' and returns created object information including name, label, and type_id.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_plane gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and FreeCAD Robust MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create_plane:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"create_plane": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "create_plane_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
} create_plane 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.

Create a Part Plane (flat rectangular face). Args: length: Plane length (X direction). Defaults to 10.0. width: Plane width (Y direction). Defaults to 10.0. name: Object name. Auto-generated if None. doc_name: Target document. Uses active document if None. Returns: Dictionary with created object information: - name: Object name - label: Object label - type_id: Object type. It is categorised as a Write tool in the FreeCAD Robust MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the FreeCAD Robust MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_plane: 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 FreeCAD Robust MCP Server. Nothing to install.
create_plane is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_plane 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for create_plane. 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.
create_plane is provided by the FreeCAD Robust MCP Server MCP server (spkane/freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
