Why create_presentation needs a policy

This tool creates a new presentation document, which is a write operation that modifies the user's Google Drive by adding a new file. The action is reversible (the presentation can be deleted), so it does not qualify as Destructive.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_presentation' and description 'Create a new Google Slides presentation' indicate reversible creation of new data in Google Workspace.

How to control create_presentation

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

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

create_presentation 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 VaultAssist — 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.
