While it could affect game behavior if misused, the impact is limited to animation assets and is recoverable through standard project version control or undo operations.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs add_animation_library safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Godot, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For add_animation_library, this is the rule to start with:
add_animation_library 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Godot, apply this rule, and every add_animation_library call is checked against it from then on.
