Propresenter: 74 unrestricted tools

The Propresenter MCP server exposes tools that can move money, delete data, or destroy resources. Without policy enforcement, an autonomous agent has unrestricted access to every one of them.

14 delete data
47 execute code
13 modify data
// DANGEROUS TOOLS
Write / Execute (60) Destructive / Financial (14)
// WHAT CAN GO WRONG
✕

Destructive tools (clear_get_group, clear_get_groups, clear_layer) permanently delete resources. There is no undo. An agent calling these in a retry loop causes irreversible damage.

✕

Write operations (messages_create, messages_update, playlists_create) modify state. Without rate limits, an agent can make hundreds of changes in seconds -- faster than any human can review or revert.

✕

Execute tools (announcement_trigger_active, announcement_trigger_cue, announcement_trigger_next) trigger processes with side effects. Builds, notifications, workflows -- all fired without throttling.

// RECOMMENDED RULES

These rules are based on the tool categories exposed by the Propresenter MCP server. Adjust the limits to match your use case.

Deny destructive operations 
clear_get_group:
    rules:
      - action: deny
        on_deny: "Destructive operations blocked by policy"

Destructive tools should never be available to autonomous agents without human approval.

Rate limit write operations 
messages_create:
    rules:
      - name: "write-rate-limit"
        rate_limit: 30/hour
        on_deny: "Write rate limit reached"

Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

Cap read operations 
announcement_focus_active:
    rules:
      - action: allow
        rate_limit: 60/minute

Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.
