WHAT IT DOES

What gd_frame does on AutoCAD MCP Pro

AI agents use gd_frame 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 gd_frame is rated Medium

The tool likely creates or modifies frame geometry in AutoCAD drawings. Frame operations in CAD are typically reversible (can be deleted/edited), placing this in Write rather than Destructive. Severity is medium because misuse could corrupt drawing structure or require manual remediation, but frames are not financial or irreversible by design.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'gd_frame' suggests geometry/drawing frame creation or modification. Server context indicates tools for 'drawing creation, entity modification, layer management' via COM and DXF operations.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

gd_frame Rate-limited

gd_frame 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.

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

FAQ

Questions about gd_frame

What does the gd_frame tool do? +

gd_frame is a write tool on the AutoCAD MCP Pro MCP server. It is categorised as a Write tool in the AutoCAD MCP Pro MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on gd_frame? +

Register the AutoCAD MCP Pro MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for gd_frame: 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 AutoCAD MCP Pro. Nothing to install.

What risk level is gd_frame? +

gd_frame is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit gd_frame? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the gd_frame 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.

How do I block gd_frame completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for gd_frame. 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.

What MCP server provides gd_frame? +

gd_frame is provided by the AutoCAD MCP Pro MCP server (u-c4n/autocad-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
