Why word_moveCursorToEnd needs a policy

This tool only repositions the cursor/selection point within a Word document. It does not modify, delete, or create any content. It is analogous to a navigation/read operation with no data side effects, though it does change application UI state (cursor position), which is a minimal and reversible side effect.

How to control word_moveCursorToEnd

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and MCP Office Interop Word Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for word_moveCursorToEnd:

policy.json

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

word_moveCursorToEnd is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
