Why library_get_libraries needs a policy

This tool queries and returns library configuration data without modifying, executing, or deleting anything. It is a straightforward read operation with minimal security risk - the only concern would be information disclosure if library contents are sensitive, but listing library names/metadata is typically low-impact.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'library_get_libraries' and description 'Get a list of all configured libraries' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.

How to control library_get_libraries

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Propresenter, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for library_get_libraries:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "library_get_libraries": {}
  }
}

library_get_libraries is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Propresenter — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
