AI agents use move_page to create or update resources in InDesign UXP MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your InDesign UXP MCP Server environment.
This tool modifies document state by changing page order/position, qualifying it as Write rather than Read (which would be retrieval-only). It is not Destructive because page reordering is fully reversible—the page and its content remain intact. It is not Execute because it does not run arbitrary code or scripts.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'move_page' and description 'Move a page to a different position' indicate structural modification of document layout. The action reorders pages within a document, which is a reversible change to document structure.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access move_page gives an agent:
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 move_page:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"move_page": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "move_page_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}move_page 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.

Move a page to a different position. It is categorised as a Write tool in the InDesign UXP MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the InDesign UXP MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for move_page: 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.
move_page is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the move_page 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 move_page. 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.
move_page 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.
