WHAT IT DOES

What validation_check does on AutoCAD MCP Pro

AI agents call validation_check to retrieve information from AutoCAD MCP Pro without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why validation_check is rated Low

Quality checks are inherently read-only operations: they inspect the drawing state and report results. No side effects, modifications, or destructive actions are implied. Severity is low because misuse only results in reading drawing data.

From the tool's definition "Run quality checks on the current drawing" — reads and analyzes the drawing to report on quality without modifying or deleting anything.

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

validation_check Allowed

validation_check is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "validation_check": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

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