What create_presentation does on Metis Public Health
AI agents use create_presentation to create or update resources in Metis Public Health, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Metis Public Health environment.
Why create_presentation is rated Medium
This tool creates new data (PowerPoint presentations) in a reversible manner. Users can modify or delete presentations afterward. The blast radius is medium because a compromised agent could generate large volumes of presentations, consume storage/resources, or create misleading/harmful presentation content, but the operation is not destructive (presentations can be deleted) nor financial.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_presentation' indicates creation of a new presentation artifact. Server description states the server 'creates PowerPoint presentations with customizable slides, layouts, and bullet points,' confirming a write/create operation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs create_presentation safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Metis Public Health, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For create_presentation, this is the rule to start with:
create_presentation 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Metis Public Health, apply this rule, and every create_presentation call is checked against it from then on.
