## Why create_presentation is rated Medium

Creating a new Google Slides presentation is a write operation that adds data/resources but is fully reversible. It does not retrieve data (Read), execute arbitrary code (Execute), permanently destroy data (Destructive), or involve financial transactions (Financial). The blast radius is minimal—an AI agent misusing this tool would create unwanted presentations, which can be easily deleted.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'create_presentation' and description 'Create a new google slides presentation' indicate creation of a new document/resource. This is a reversible write operation (presentations can be deleted)."

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Mcp Google Docs:

```json

  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "create_presentation": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "create_presentation_rate",

          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
