# run_macro A execute tool on the FreeCAD Robust MCP Server MCP server. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `run_macro`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/run-macro ## Facts - Tool: `run_macro` - Server: FreeCAD Robust MCP Server (`spkane/freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server.md - Homepage: https://github.com/spkane/freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server - Risk category: Execute (High risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "run_macro", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why run_macro is rated High Running macros in FreeCAD executes user-supplied code with full access to the FreeCAD API and potentially system resources. This is a code execution capability whose effects depend entirely on macro arguments/content. Severity is high due to potential for malicious macro execution affecting 3D models, file systems, or external processes, though not financial or permanently destructive by default. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'run_macro' combined with server context ('macro development') indicates execution of arbitrary code/macros in FreeCAD. Empty description lowers confidence slightly but context is clear." ## Use case AI agents invoke run_macro 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. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches FreeCAD Robust MCP Server: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "run_macro": { "limits": [ { "counter": "run_macro_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 10, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## Other tools on FreeCAD Robust MCP Server (151) - `close_document` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/close-document.md - `delete_macro` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/delete-macro.md - `delete_object` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/delete-object.md - `delete_sketch_constraint` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/delete-sketch-constraint.md - `delete_sketch_geometry` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/delete-sketch-geometry.md - `spreadsheet_clear_cell` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/spreadsheet-clear-cell.md - `activate_workbench` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/activate-workbench.md - `boolean_operation` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/boolean-operation.md - `draft_extrude_shapestring` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/draft-extrude-shapestring.md - `execute_python` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/execute-python.md - `explode_compound` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/explode-compound.md - `part_sweep` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/part-sweep.md - `recompute` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/recompute.md - `recompute_document` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/recompute-document.md - `revolution_sketch` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/revolution-sketch.md - `safe_execute` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/safe-execute.md - `scale_object` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/scale-object.md - `set_camera_position` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/set-camera-position.md - `shell_object` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/shell-object.md - `slice_shape` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/slice-shape.md - `subtractive_loft` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/subtractive-loft.md - `subtractive_pipe` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/subtractive-pipe.md - `common_all` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/common-all.md - `draft_feature` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/draft-feature.md - `draft_shapestring_to_face` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/draft-shapestring-to-face.md - `draft_text_on_surface` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/draft-text-on-surface.md - `section_shape` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/section-shape.md - `set_display_mode` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/set-display-mode.md - `set_view_angle` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/set-view-angle.md - `undo_if_invalid` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server/undo-if-invalid.md - …and 121 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/spkane-freecad-addon-robust-mcp-server.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
