Why instantiate_prefab needs a policy

Instantiating a prefab in Unity creates a new object instance in a scene, which is a reversible write operation. The description is empty, so confidence is reduced, but the name strongly implies creation/instantiation of a game object.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'instantiate_prefab' and server context describing asset manipulation and Unity Editor control; description is empty.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access instantiate_prefab gives an agent:

How to control instantiate_prefab

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "instantiate_prefab": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "instantiate_prefab_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

instantiate_prefab 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.

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