`newFilePath`	string	Yes	The new absolute file path to relink to
`projectItemId`	string	Yes	The ID of the project item to relink

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why relink_media is rated Medium

This tool modifies project metadata by reassociating media files without deleting the original references or data. It is reversible (you can relink to a different path again), so it is Write rather than Destructive.

From the tool's definition Relinks an offline or moved media file to a new file path — this modifies the project's media references, changing which file is associated with a clip.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs relink_media 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 relink_media, this is the rule to start with:

relink_media Rate-limited

relink_media 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.
