What part_sweep does on FreeCAD Robust MCP Server
AI agents invoke part_sweep to trigger actions in FreeCAD Robust MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
Why part_sweep is rated High
In FreeCAD, 'Part Sweep' is a 3D modeling operation that creates a solid by sweeping a profile along a path. Based on context (FreeCAD 3D modeling server, sibling tools like add_sketch_arc, add_sketch_circle, activate_workbench), this tool likely executes a geometric modeling operation in FreeCAD. It is an Execute-category action as it triggers an external operation in FreeCAD.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs part_sweep 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 part_sweep, this is the rule to start with:
part_sweep stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times 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 part_sweep call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about part_sweep
part_sweep is a execute tool on the FreeCAD Robust MCP Server MCP server. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the FreeCAD Robust MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the FreeCAD Robust MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for part_sweep: 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.
part_sweep is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the part_sweep 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 part_sweep. 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.
part_sweep 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.
