WHAT IT DOES

What hatch_add_boundary does on AutoCAD MCP Pro

RISK

Why hatch_add_boundary is rated Medium

Adds hatching to CAD drawings, reversibly modifying design data without deletion or execution risks.

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

hatch_add_boundary Rate-limited

hatch_add_boundary 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.
