scene_path | string | Yes | Path to .tscn scene file containing an AnimationTree node |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
This tool queries and retrieves the state of an AnimationTree resource in Godot, including its state machine configuration. It performs inspection/retrieval only, with no modifications, deletions, or external operations. This is a straightforward Read operation with minimal security risk, as it only exposes existing animation data already present in the engine.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'read_animation_tree' and description states 'Read AnimationTree with state machine.' The verb 'read' and action of retrieving animation tree data indicates data retrieval with no side effects.

read_animation_tree accepts 1 parameter: scene_path. Required: scene_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 read_animation_tree: 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.
read_animation_tree 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 read_animation_tree 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 read_animation_tree. 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.
read_animation_tree 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.
read_animation_tree 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.
