AI agents call get_document_sections to retrieve information from InDesign UXP MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns document section information. It performs a pure read operation—retrieving data about sections without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any actions. The verb 'get' and the lack of any mutative language confirm it is a safe, informational query tool.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_document_sections' and description 'Get all sections in the document' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and InDesign UXP MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_document_sections:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_document_sections": {}
}
}get_document_sections is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get all sections in the document. It is categorised as a Read tool in the InDesign UXP MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the InDesign UXP MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_document_sections: 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 InDesign UXP MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_document_sections 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 get_document_sections 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 get_document_sections. 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.
get_document_sections is provided by the InDesign UXP MCP Server MCP server (theloniuser/indesign-uxp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
