## Why get_metadata is rated Low

This tool performs a read-only query operation on metadata within an Adobe Premiere Pro project. It retrieves information about a project item without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any actions. The operation has no side effects and presents minimal risk of misuse by an AI agent, as reading metadata cannot damage projects or cause unintended changes. Classified as Read with low severity.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'get_metadata' and description states it 'Gets project metadata and XMP metadata for a project item' — the verb 'Gets' indicates pure data retrieval with no modification or side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call get_metadata to retrieve information from Adobe Premiere Pro without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Adobe Premiere Pro:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_metadata": {}
  }
}
```
