THE RISK

Why gear_draw_section_aa needs a policy

Based on the server context (AutoCAD automation, drawing creation, entity modification) and the tool name implying a drawing/creation operation, this likely executes a CAD drawing action. Without a description, confidence is reduced. Drawing operations in AutoCAD modify the document state, making this at minimum a Write/Execute action.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'gear_draw_section_aa' suggests drawing a section (AA cross-section) of a gear in AutoCAD; description is empty and uninformative.

POLICY

How to control gear_draw_section_aa

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and AutoCAD MCP Pro, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for gear_draw_section_aa:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "gear_draw_section_aa": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "gear_draw_section_aa_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

gear_draw_section_aa stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register AutoCAD MCP Pro — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

FAQ

Questions about gear_draw_section_aa

What does the gear_draw_section_aa tool do? +

gear_draw_section_aa. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the AutoCAD MCP Pro MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on gear_draw_section_aa? +

Register the AutoCAD MCP Pro MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for gear_draw_section_aa: 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 gear_draw_section_aa? +

gear_draw_section_aa is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit gear_draw_section_aa? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the gear_draw_section_aa 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 gear_draw_section_aa completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for gear_draw_section_aa. 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 gear_draw_section_aa? +

gear_draw_section_aa 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.

Enforce policy on every AutoCAD MCP Pro tool call.

Start from AutoCAD MCP Pro, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
