Look up config/INI values by key name, with optional section filter. Cross-references with UPROPERTY(Config) C++ symbols.
AI agents call get_config_values to retrieve information from Unreal Project without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs read-only queries against configuration data structures. It returns existing configuration values without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. The cross-referencing is a lookup operation, not a side effect. No irreversible changes, code execution, or external operations are triggered.
From the tool's definition Tool retrieves config/INI values by key name with optional section filter and cross-references UPROPERTY(Config) C++ symbols. The description uses verbs 'look up' and 'cross-references', indicating data retrieval without modification or execution.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Look up config/INI values by key name, with optional section filter. Cross-references with UPROPERTY(Config) C++ symbols. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Unreal Project MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Unreal Project MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_config_values: 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 Project. Nothing to install.
get_config_values 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_config_values 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_config_values. 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_config_values is provided by the Unreal Project MCP server (tumourlove/deprecated-unreal-project-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
