What planar_surface does on GOLEM-3DMCP-Rhino-

AI agents use planar_surface 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 planar_surface needs a policy

This tool creates new geometry (a planar surface) in the 3D model, which is a reversible Write operation. While it modifies the model state, the action is not destructive (surfaces can be deleted) and does not execute arbitrary code or cause financial impact.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Create a planar surface from a closed planar curve boundary' — the verb 'Create' indicates data creation/modification in the Rhino 3D model.

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

How to control planar_surface

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 planar_surface:

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

planar_surface 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 planar_surface

What does the planar_surface tool do? +

Create a planar surface from a closed planar curve boundary. 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 planar_surface? +

Register the GOLEM-3DMCP-Rhino- MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for planar_surface: 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 planar_surface? +

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

Can I rate-limit planar_surface? +

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

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

planar_surface 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.

Enforce policy on every GOLEM-3DMCP-Rhino- tool call.

Start from GOLEM-3DMCP-Rhino-, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
