WHAT IT DOES

What stage_get_message does on Propresenter

AI agents call stage_get_message to retrieve information from Propresenter without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why stage_get_message is rated Low

This tool queries and retrieves the current stage message from ProPresenter 7 without creating, modifying, or deleting any data. It is a simple GET operation that has no side effects on the system state. Therefore, it falls clearly into the Read category with low severity, as misuse would only expose informational data about presentation state.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'stage_get_message' and description 'Get the current stage message' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs stage_get_message 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 stage_get_message, this is the rule to start with:

stage_get_message Allowed

stage_get_message is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "stage_get_message": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

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