What assemble_product_spot does on Adobe Premiere Pro

Why assemble_product_spot is rated Medium
The tool creates and modifies video project structure (timeline assembly, transitions, effects, trims) but does not execute arbitrary code, delete content irreversibly, or move financial resources. These are edits to a project that can be undone in Premiere Pro.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states it 'Builds a production-oriented promo timeline' and 'Supports...clipPlan for LLM-directed pacing, transitions, motion, trims, and per-clip effects.' These are reversible modifications to a video project timeline.

The rule that runs assemble_product_spot safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Adobe Premiere Pro, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For assemble_product_spot, this is the rule to start with:
assemble_product_spot 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Adobe Premiere Pro, apply this rule, and every assemble_product_spot call is checked against it from then on.

Register the Adobe Premiere Pro MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for assemble_product_spot: 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 Adobe Premiere Pro. Nothing to install.
assemble_product_spot is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the assemble_product_spot 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 assemble_product_spot. 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.
