Why scene_add_gltf_model needs a policy

This tool creates or modifies the AR scene state by inserting 3D model assets into the scene graph. While this changes the scene structure, it is reversible (models can be removed, scenes reset, or projects reverted), so it does not meet the Destructive threshold.

From the tool's definition Tool explicitly performs 'Add a GLTF/GLB model to the scene' — a creation action that modifies the AR scene composition by introducing new 3D assets. The verb 'Add' and the scope of modifying scene state classify this as a Write operation.

How to control scene_add_gltf_model

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 scene_add_gltf_model:

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

scene_add_gltf_model 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.
