set_alignment · LLM2Docs (Unofficial) MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What set_alignment does on LLM2Docs (Unofficial)

AI agents use set_alignment to create or update resources in LLM2Docs (Unofficial) — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your LLM2Docs (Unofficial) environment.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why set_alignment needs a policy

This tool modifies document content reversibly by changing paragraph alignment (left, center, right, justify). It does not delete data, execute arbitrary code, or cause financial impact. While it changes a document, the modification is easily undone, making it Write rather than Destructive.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Set text alignment for a paragraph', which modifies document formatting. The sibling tools (append_text, apply_font_formatting, apply_heading, etc.) are all document modification operations, confirming this is a Write-category tool.

Verdict

set_alignment Rate-limited

set_alignment 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.
