How to control mirror_object ↓

AI agents use mirror_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.

Medium Risk

Mirroring is a reversible geometric transformation that modifies the 3D model state. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data, or cause financial impact. The empty description reduces confidence slightly, but the context of FreeCAD modeling tools and the 'mirror_object' name clearly indicate a Write-class operation that transforms geometry without permanent destruction.

From the tool's definition Tool named 'mirror_object' in a FreeCAD 3D modeling context. Sibling tools (add_sketch_*, add_external_geometry) show this server manipulates 3D model geometry. Mirroring creates new or modifies existing objects in the model.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access mirror_object 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 mirror_object:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "mirror_object": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "mirror_object_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

mirror_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.

  1. Create a free account and register FreeCAD Robust MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

What does the mirror_object tool do? +

mirror_object. 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.

How do I enforce a policy on mirror_object? +

Register the FreeCAD Robust MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for mirror_object: 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.

What risk level is mirror_object? +

mirror_object is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit mirror_object? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the mirror_object 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.

How do I block mirror_object completely? +

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

What MCP server provides mirror_object? +

mirror_object 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.

Enforce policy on every FreeCAD Robust MCP Server tool call.
