ue-mcp Write Risk 3/5

AI agents use landscape to create or modify resources in Ue. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call landscape repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. Intercept's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Ue.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

What does the landscape tool do? +

Landscape terrain: info, layers, sculpting, painting, materials, heightmap import. Actions: - get_info: Get landscape setup - list_layers: List paint layers - sample: Sample height/layers. Params: x, y - list_splines: Read landscape splines - get_component: Inspect component. Params: componentIndex - sculpt: Sculpt heightmap. Params: x, y, radius, strength, falloff? - paint_layer: Paint weight layer. Params: layerName, x, y, radius, strength? - set_material: Set landscape material. Params: materialPath - add_layer_info: Register paint layer. Params: layerName - import_heightmap: Import heightmap file. Params: filePath - get_material_usage_summary: Per-proxy summary: landscape/hole material paths + component/grass/nanite counts (#150). It is categorised as a Write tool in the Ue MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on landscape? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for landscape. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Ue MCP server.

What risk level is landscape? +

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

Can I rate-limit landscape? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the landscape rule in your Intercept 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 landscape completely? +

Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for landscape. 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 landscape? +

landscape is provided by the Ue MCP server (ue-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
