Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`path`	string	Yes	Path to .csv translation file to write/overwrite
`entries`	object	Yes	Map of translation key to its value

RECOMMENDED RULE

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

write_translation Rate-limited

write_translation 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.
