AI agents use resize_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.
Resizing a page modifies document structure reversibly. While this could affect layout and content reflow, it does not delete data or execute arbitrary code. The blast radius is medium because unintended resizes could damage complex layouts or require manual correction, but the change can be undone. This is a classic Write operation—creating or modifying data reversibly.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'resize_page' and description 'Resize a page' indicate modification of page dimensions—a reversible structural change to a document.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access resize_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 resize_page:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"resize_page": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "resize_page_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}resize_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.

Resize a page. 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 resize_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.
resize_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 resize_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 resize_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.
resize_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.
