List all slides in a presentation with their titles
AI agents call keynote_list_slides to retrieve information from Iwork without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only reads and returns slide information from an existing presentation. It has no side effects, cannot modify data, and poses minimal risk if misused by an AI agent. It is a straightforward Read category tool.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'list' and description states 'List all slides in a presentation with their titles' — a query operation that retrieves information without modification.

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_list_slides:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"keynote_list_slides": {}
}
} keynote_list_slides is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

keynote_list_slides is provided by the Iwork MCP server (reichenbach/iwork_mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Iwork, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
