WHAT IT DOES

What transpose_notes does on Livepilot

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

RISK

Why transpose_notes is rated Medium

This tool modifies existing note data by shifting pitches, which is a reversible write operation. It alters musical content within Ableton Live but does not delete or irreversibly destroy data. Misuse could corrupt a composition's pitch structure, hence medium severity.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs transpose_notes safely

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

transpose_notes Rate-limited

transpose_notes 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.
