WHAT IT DOES

What generate_presentation does on CoWork OS

AI agents use generate_presentation to create or update resources in CoWork OS, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your CoWork OS environment.

RISK

Why generate_presentation is rated Medium

This tool creates or generates a presentation file, which is a reversible write operation. It does not delete, execute arbitrary code, move money, or have destructive effects. The file can be edited, replaced, or deleted afterward.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Generate a PowerPoint (PPTX) presentation from structured slide data' - this creates a new file artifact that is persisted and can be shared or modified later.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs generate_presentation safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and CoWork OS, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For generate_presentation, this is the rule to start with:

generate_presentation Rate-limited

generate_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.
