AI agents call get_uid to retrieve information from Godot without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
This tool queries and retrieves file metadata (UID/unique identifier) with no side effects. It is a read-only operation that returns information about a file without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing anything. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius if misused—an agent could retrieve UIDs but cannot damage systems or data.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_uid' and description 'Get UID for a file' indicate a retrieval operation that fetches metadata (unique identifier) from a file without modification.

Get UID for a file. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Godot MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
get_uid accepts 1 parameter: path. Required: path. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Godot MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_uid: 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 Godot. Nothing to install.
get_uid is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_uid 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_uid. 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.
get_uid is provided by the Godot MCP server (@yanhuifair/godot-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
get_uid is one line of Godot's registry record.
The record carries the whole server: verified identity, auth posture, risk grade, every tool classified, recommended policy — re-checked continuously.
