How to control create_powerpoint_presentation ↓

AI agents use create_powerpoint_presentation to create or update resources in Office Editor — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Office Editor environment.

Medium Risk

This tool creates a new PowerPoint presentation file, which is a reversible data modification operation. It fits the Write category as it creates new files/documents without permanent deletion or irreversible effects. Severity is medium because creation of numerous files could consume storage resources, but the action is reversible (files can be deleted).

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_powerpoint_presentation' with description indicating creation of new PowerPoint file. Argument 'filename' specifies the file to be created. Returns operation result message indicating file creation has occurred.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_powerpoint_presentation gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Office Editor, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create_powerpoint_presentation:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "create_powerpoint_presentation": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "create_powerpoint_presentation_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

create_powerpoint_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.

  1. Create a free account and register Office Editor — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
