What create_polyline does on GOLEM-3DMCP-Rhino-

AI agents use create_polyline to create or update resources in GOLEM-3DMCP-Rhino- — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your GOLEM-3DMCP-Rhino- environment.

Medium Risk

Why create_polyline needs a policy

The tool creates geometry (polyline) in a CAD model. This is data creation/modification that can be undone (undo/delete operations), placing it in Write rather than Execute or Destructive. Severity is medium because unintended polyline creation could clutter models or cause workflow disruption, but the impact is contained to geometry and reversible.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_polyline' and server context describe geometric modeling in Rhino 8. Creating polylines adds new geometry to the model, which is a reversible modification (Write category).

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_polyline gives an agent:

How to control create_polyline

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and GOLEM-3DMCP-Rhino-, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create_polyline:

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

create_polyline 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.

  1. Create a free account and register GOLEM-3DMCP-Rhino- — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

Questions about create_polyline

What does the create_polyline tool do? +

create_polyline. It is categorised as a Write tool in the GOLEM-3DMCP-Rhino- MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on create_polyline? +

Register the GOLEM-3DMCP-Rhino- MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_polyline: 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 GOLEM-3DMCP-Rhino-. Nothing to install.

What risk level is create_polyline? +

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

Can I rate-limit create_polyline? +

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

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

create_polyline is provided by the GOLEM-3DMCP-Rhino- MCP server (thekinghippopotamus/golem-3dmcp-rhino-). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
