Why props_get_all needs a policy

This tool queries and retrieves data from the ProPresenter 7 props library without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a read-only operation, consistent with the Read category definition of 'retrieves or queries data; no side effects'. The severity is low because retrieving library metadata poses minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'props_get_all' and description 'Get all props in the library' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.

How to control props_get_all

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 props_get_all:

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

props_get_all 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.
