Why load_drum_kit needs a policy

Loading a drum kit implies writing/modifying the state of a track by adding an instrument. This is a reversible modification (Write) rather than destructive. Confidence is reduced due to the empty description.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'load_drum_kit' with empty description. Based on name, it likely loads a drum kit/instrument into a track in Ableton Live.

How to control load_drum_kit

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "load_drum_kit": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "load_drum_kit_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

load_drum_kit 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.
