Why keynote_close_presentation needs a policy

Closing a presentation without saving can result in irreversible loss of unsaved changes. Depending on the implementation (e.g., closing without prompting to save), this could permanently discard work. Since the effect may be irreversible (data loss), Destructive is the most appropriate category, though it's not a delete/drop operation in the traditional sense.

POLICY

How to control keynote_close_presentation

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "keynote_close_presentation"
  ]
}

keynote_close_presentation disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

Create a free account and register Iwork — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
