WHAT IT DOES

What system_launch does on AutoCAD MCP Pro

AI agents invoke system_launch to trigger actions in AutoCAD MCP Pro. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

RISK

Why system_launch is rated High

Launch with no description likely triggers system processes or external applications, enabling arbitrary command execution.

From the tool's definition uninformative description; launch suggests external process execution.

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

system_launch Rate-limited

system_launch 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.

FAQ

Questions about system_launch

What does the system_launch tool do? +

system_launch is a execute tool on the AutoCAD MCP Pro MCP server. 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 system_launch? +

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

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

Can I rate-limit system_launch? +

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

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

system_launch 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.
