WHAT IT DOES

What set_node_rotation does on Godot

AI agents use set_node_rotation to create or update resources in Godot, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Godot environment.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`value`	string	Yes	Rotation: float for 2D (e.g. "1.57"), "x,y,z" or "Vector3" for 3D
`node_path`	string	Yes	Node path
`scene_path`	string	Yes	Path to .tscn file

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why set_node_rotation is rated Medium

The tool modifies node rotation properties in Godot, which is a Write operation—it changes engine state reversibly. It does not execute arbitrary code (Execute), delete data (Destructive), or move money (Financial). Severity is medium because changing node rotations could break game logic or visuals, but the effect is scoped to a single property and can be undone via another set operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'set_node_rotation' and description 'Set node rotation (2D/3D)' indicate modification of node properties in a game engine scene. This is a reversible state change operation.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs set_node_rotation 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 set_node_rotation, this is the rule to start with:

set_node_rotation Rate-limited

set_node_rotation 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.

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "set_node_rotation": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "set_node_rotation_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

LIMIT THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Godot, apply this rule, and every set_node_rotation call is checked against it from then on.

What parameters does set_node_rotation accept? +

set_node_rotation accepts 3 parameters: value, node_path, scene_path. Required: value, node_path, scene_path. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on set_node_rotation? +

Register the Godot MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for set_node_rotation: 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.

What risk level is set_node_rotation? +

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

Can I rate-limit set_node_rotation? +

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

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