Set layers on an object or camera — runtime-only preview (lost on reload). ASK the user first: runtime preview or persistent code change? Runtime preview — lost on page reload. You MUST ask the user first: runtime preview only, or also update source code?

AI agents use set_layers to create or modify resources in Threejs Devtools. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.
Without a policy, an AI agent could call set_layers repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Threejs Devtools.
Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access set_layers gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:
Other write tools across the catalogue. The same approach applies to each: rate-limit and validate the arguments.
Set layers on an object or camera — runtime-only preview (lost on reload). ASK the user first: runtime preview or persistent code change? Runtime preview — lost on page reload. You MUST ask the user first: runtime preview only, or also update source code?. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Threejs Devtools MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Threejs Devtools MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for set_layers: 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 Threejs Devtools. Nothing to install.
set_layers is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the set_layers 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for set_layers. 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.
set_layers is provided by the Threejs Devtools MCP server (threejs-devtools-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
