Why assign_tags_to_song needs a policy

This tool creates or modifies song metadata (tags) in the Planning Center Online system. The operation is reversible—tags can be reassigned or removed—making it a Write action rather than Destructive. The blast radius is minimal as incorrect tag assignments affect only metadata organization and search filtering, not core business logic or financial data.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'assign_tags_to_song' and description 'Assign tags to a specific song' indicate data modification. Tags are metadata that can be added, removed, or changed, which constitutes a reversible write operation.

POLICY

How to control assign_tags_to_song

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Planning Center Online (PCO) MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for assign_tags_to_song:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "assign_tags_to_song": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "assign_tags_to_song_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

assign_tags_to_song 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.
