WHAT IT DOES

What add_rectangle_extrusion_outward does on Hardware MCP Server

AI agents use add_rectangle_extrusion_outward to create or update resources in Hardware MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Hardware MCP Server environment.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why add_rectangle_extrusion_outward needs a policy

This tool creates and modifies CAD geometry in a reversible manner. It adds new extrusion features to a mechanical design without deleting existing data or executing arbitrary code. The effect is deterministic based on input parameters (coordinates and dimensions).

From the tool's definition Tool performs 'Add a rectangle extrusion' which creates new geometric data in a CAD model. The tool modifies the design by adding a structural feature at specified coordinates with given dimensions.

Questions about add_rectangle_extrusion_outward

What does the add_rectangle_extrusion_outward tool do? +

Add a rectangle extrusion at (center_x, center_y) with size x_length x y_length x depth. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Hardware 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 add_rectangle_extrusion_outward? +

Register the Hardware MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for add_rectangle_extrusion_outward: 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 Hardware MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is add_rectangle_extrusion_outward? +

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

Can I rate-limit add_rectangle_extrusion_outward? +

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

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

add_rectangle_extrusion_outward is provided by the Hardware MCP Server MCP server (thefloatingstring/mcp-for-hardware). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
