WHAT IT DOES

What set_placement does on FreeCAD Robust MCP Server

AI agents use set_placement 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 set_placement is rated Medium

'set_placement' performs reversible modification of object geometry or positioning data in FreeCAD models. The description is empty, reducing confidence slightly, but context from sibling write/create tools and the FreeCAD domain (3D modeling) strongly indicate this creates or updates object properties.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'set_placement' in a FreeCAD 3D modeling context suggests modifying object placement/position properties; sibling tools like 'add_sketch_arc', 'add_sketch_line' are Write operations, establishing the pattern that this server's tools modify model…

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

set_placement Rate-limited

set_placement 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.

FAQ

Questions about set_placement

What does the set_placement tool do? +

set_placement is a write tool on the FreeCAD Robust MCP Server MCP server. 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 set_placement? +

Register the FreeCAD Robust MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for set_placement: 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 set_placement? +

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

Can I rate-limit set_placement? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the set_placement 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 set_placement completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for set_placement. 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 set_placement? +

set_placement 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.
