networking can modify Ue data, with no limits today. PolicyLayer puts allow, deny, and rate-limit rules on every call. Live in minutes.

AI agents use networking 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 networking repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer'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.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access networking gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so networking only ever does what you allow.

What does the networking tool do? +

Networking and replication: actor replication, property replication, net relevancy, dormancy. Actions: - set_replicates: Enable actor replication. Params: blueprintPath, replicates? - set_property_replicated: Mark variable as replicated. Params: blueprintPath, propertyName, replicated?, replicationCondition?, repNotify? - configure_net_frequency: Set update frequency. Params: blueprintPath, netUpdateFrequency?, minNetUpdateFrequency? - set_dormancy: Set net dormancy. Params: blueprintPath, dormancy - set_net_load_on_client: Control client loading. Params: blueprintPath, loadOnClient? - set_always_relevant: Always network relevant. Params: blueprintPath, alwaysRelevant? - set_only_relevant_to_owner: Only relevant to owner. Params: blueprintPath, onlyRelevantToOwner? - configure_cull_distance: Net cull distance. Params: blueprintPath, netCullDistanceSquared? - set_priority: Net priority. Params: blueprintPath, netPriority? - set_replicate_movement: Replicate movement. Params: blueprintPath, replicateMovement? - get_info: Get networking info. Params: blueprintPath. 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 networking? +

Register the Ue MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for networking: 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 Ue. Nothing to install.

What risk level is networking? +

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

Can I rate-limit networking? +

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

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

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

Enforce policy on every Ue tool call.
