What draft_shapestring does on FreeCAD Robust MCP Server
AI agents use draft_shapestring 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.
Why draft_shapestring is rated Medium
FreeCAD geometry creation tools modify the document model by adding new shapes or geometry elements. This is reversible (objects can be deleted, undo is available), so it classifies as Write rather than Destructive or Execute. However, description is empty, reducing confidence.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'draft_shapestring' indicates shape/geometry creation in FreeCAD's Draft workbench. Sibling tools like 'add_sketch_arc', 'add_sketch_circle', 'add_sketch_line' all create or modify 2D/3D geometry.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs draft_shapestring safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and FreeCAD Robust MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For draft_shapestring, this is the rule to start with:
draft_shapestring 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 FreeCAD Robust MCP Server, apply this rule, and every draft_shapestring call is checked against it from then on.
