RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs entity_get_xdata 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_get_xdata, this is the rule to start with:

entity_get_xdata Allowed

entity_get_xdata is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect AutoCAD MCP Pro, apply this rule, and every entity_get_xdata call is checked against it from then on.
