Get build status. Latest build if no ID given.
AI agents call get_build_status to retrieve information from Unreal Editor without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves build status data with no side effects, reversible operations, or external command execution. It is purely informational. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could only query build state, not trigger builds, modify code, or cause destructive actions. Severity is low because the worst outcome is information disclosure about build state.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_build_status' and description 'Get build status. Latest build if no ID given.' indicate retrieval of status information without modification.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get build status. Latest build if no ID given. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Unreal Editor MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Unreal Editor MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_build_status: 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 Unreal Editor. Nothing to install.
get_build_status is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_build_status 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 get_build_status. 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.
get_build_status is provided by the Unreal Editor MCP server (tumourlove/deprecated-unreal-editor-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
