Why player_set_driver_header_mode needs a policy

Based on the naming pattern of sibling tools (player_set_always_on_top, player_set_bounds), 'set' operations modify player configuration settings reversibly. This tool likely changes how driver headers are displayed in the player UI. Empty description lowers confidence. Severity is low as it only affects local UI presentation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'player_set_driver_header_mode' suggests modifying a display/UI setting on a player; description is empty and uninformative.

How to control player_set_driver_header_mode

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "player_set_driver_header_mode": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "player_set_driver_header_mode_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

player_set_driver_header_mode 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.

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