WHAT IT DOES

What entity_array_rectangular does on AutoCAD MCP Pro

AI agents use entity_array_rectangular to create or update resources in AutoCAD MCP Pro, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your AutoCAD MCP Pro environment.

RISK

Why entity_array_rectangular is rated Medium

The tool lacks an explicit description, reducing confidence slightly, but the naming convention and context of an AutoCAD automation server strongly suggest this creates arrayed copies of entities (a reversible write operation). This is Write rather than Execute because it modifies drawing state in a predictable, structured way based on entity selection and array parameters, not by executing arbitrary code.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'entity_array_rectangular' suggests creating or duplicating entities in a rectangular pattern within AutoCAD.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs entity_array_rectangular safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and AutoCAD MCP Pro, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For entity_array_rectangular, this is the rule to start with:

entity_array_rectangular Rate-limited

entity_array_rectangular 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.
