THE RISK

Medium Risk

Why desktop_add_rotation_animation needs a policy

The tool name implies it writes rotation animation data to a scene or component. The description is incomplete and warns it is broken, causing unspecified side effects via unregistered attributes. Given it 'adds' something, Write is the most appropriate category, though the broken nature and unknown side effects lower confidence. Severity is medium as misuse could corrupt scene state.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'desktop_add_rotation_animation' suggests adding/writing animation data; description says 'BROKEN - DO NOT USE!' and 'Adds unregistered attributes causing' (truncated)

POLICY

How to control desktop_add_rotation_animation

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and 8th Wall MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for desktop_add_rotation_animation:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "desktop_add_rotation_animation": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "desktop_add_rotation_animation_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

desktop_add_rotation_animation 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.
