What restore_named_view does on GOLEM-3DMCP-Rhino-

AI agents invoke restore_named_view to trigger actions in GOLEM-3DMCP-Rhino-. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

Why restore_named_view needs a policy

Restoring a named view triggers an external operation in Rhino that changes the active viewport state (camera position, angle, zoom, etc.). It is not a pure read (it modifies the application state), not a write of persistent geometry, and not destructive. It executes a viewport/UI action within Rhino, making Execute the most appropriate category. Misuse could disorient the scene view but has limited blast radius.

How to control restore_named_view

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 restore_named_view:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "restore_named_view": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "restore_named_view_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

restore_named_view stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times 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.
