WHAT IT DOES

What edit_object does on FreeCAD Robust MCP Server

AI agents use edit_object 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.

RISK

Why edit_object is rated Medium

The 'edit_object' tool modifies existing FreeCAD objects, making it a Write operation. It is reversible (edits can be undone in FreeCAD), so it does not qualify as Destructive. The blast radius is medium because modifying 3D model objects could corrupt or alter project designs, but effects are typically reversible through undo functionality.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'edit_object' in a FreeCAD modeling context indicates modification of 3D model objects. Description is empty, limiting precision.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

edit_object Rate-limited

edit_object 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.
