Why setup_unity_bridge needs a policy

This tool creates or modifies bridge scripts within a Unity project, which are reversible operations (scripts can be deleted or updated). While it affects the project state, it does not irreversibly destroy data or execute arbitrary commands within the project context itself—it merely installs/updates specific bridge infrastructure files. This is a Write-class operation.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Install/update Unity MCP bridge scripts to a Unity project', indicating creation and modification of project files.

POLICY

How to control setup_unity_bridge

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and MCP Server for Unity, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for setup_unity_bridge:

policy.json

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

setup_unity_bridge 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.

Create a free account and register MCP Server for Unity — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
