Opens a Keynote presentation (.key file) by file path.
AI agents call open_presentation to retrieve information from Keynote MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Opening a file is fundamentally a read operation — it loads the file into memory for viewing/editing but does not modify, delete, or create data. The side effect is minimal (file handle/process state), and misuse risk is low since it does not alter the file itself.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Opens a Keynote presentation (.key file) by file path. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Keynote MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Keynote MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for open_presentation: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Keynote MCP Server. Nothing to install.
open_presentation is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the open_presentation rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for open_presentation. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
open_presentation is provided by the Keynote MCP Server MCP server (superdwayne/keynotemp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
