WHAT IT DOES

What playlists_create does on Propresenter

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

RISK

Why playlists_create is rated Medium

This tool creates a new playlist, which is a reversible write operation. It adds data to the system but does not execute code, delete data, or move money. The blast radius is medium because improper creation of playlists could disrupt presentation workflows, but the operation is not permanent or destructive and can be undone through manual deletion or reversal.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'playlists_create' and description 'Create a new playlist' indicate creation of new data within ProPresenter 7.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs playlists_create safely

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

playlists_create Rate-limited

playlists_create 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.

      ]
    }

}

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Propresenter, apply this rule, and every playlists_create call is checked against it from then on.
