A write tool on the AutoCAD MCP Pro MCP server.

Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `entity_scale`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/u-c4n-autocad-mcp/entity-scale

## Facts

- Tool: `entity_scale`
- Server: AutoCAD MCP Pro (`u-c4n/autocad-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/u-c4n-autocad-mcp.md
- Homepage: https://github.com/U-C4N/Autocad-MCP
- Risk category: Write (Medium risk)
- Registry record: grade F, identity unverified
- Server rate-limited: no
- Parameters: 0
- Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "entity_scale",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why entity_scale is rated Medium

Based on the name, this tool likely scales (resizes) one or more CAD entities. Scaling modifies geometry reversibly (the entity can be rescaled back), placing it in the Write category. Severity is medium because misuse could distort drawing geometry. Confidence is reduced due to the empty description.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'entity_scale' on an AutoCAD automation server; description is empty."

## Use case

AI agents use entity_scale 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.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches AutoCAD MCP Pro:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "entity_scale": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "entity_scale_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
