This tool creates new MIDI file artifacts (chord progression data) that can be saved and used in DAWs. This is a Write operation—it produces new data reversibly (the generated file can be deleted, re-generated, or modified). There are no destructive deletions, financial transactions, arbitrary code execution, or data retrieval operations.

From the tool's definition The tool 'generates' and 'creates' MIDI files (artifacts that contain musical data). The description uses 'Generate a MIDI file' and the server enables 'generate professional, production-ready MIDI files', indicating file creation.

How to control generate_chord_progression

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

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