Get #include dependency graph for a file (what it includes and what includes it).
AI agents call get_file_dependencies to retrieve information from Ue Codegraph without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool reads and queries static structural information about C++ header dependencies within an Unreal Engine codebase. It has no side effects, does not execute code, and does not modify or delete data. It is purely informational analysis, consistent with sibling tools like find_callers, find_callees, and find_references which all enumerate code relationships.
From the tool's definition Tool returns a #include dependency graph; it 'Get[s]' and retrieves dependency relationships without modifying, executing, or deleting code. It is a query/analysis function over indexed codebase data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get #include dependency graph for a file (what it includes and what includes it). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Ue Codegraph MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Ue Codegraph MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_file_dependencies: 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 Ue Codegraph. Nothing to install.
get_file_dependencies 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_file_dependencies 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_file_dependencies. 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_file_dependencies is provided by the Ue Codegraph MCP server (yomenstyle/ue-codegraph-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
