AI agents use insert_table_of_contents 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.
This tool creates and inserts new content (a table of contents) into an existing document, making it a Write operation rather than Read. While inserting a TOC is reversible and not destructive, it does modify document state. Severity is medium because misuse could clutter or disrupt document organization, but the effects are easily undone.
From the tool's definition insert_table_of_contents modifies a Word document by inserting a table of contents at a specified location, which is a reversible creation operation. The tool takes a file_path and parameters (title, levels, after_paragraph) to modify the document structure.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access insert_table_of_contents 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 insert_table_of_contents:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"insert_table_of_contents": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "insert_table_of_contents_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
} insert_table_of_contents 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.

Register the Office Editor MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for insert_table_of_contents: 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 Office Editor. Nothing to install.
insert_table_of_contents 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 insert_table_of_contents 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 insert_table_of_contents. 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.
insert_table_of_contents is provided by the Office Editor MCP server (thewdy/office-editor-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
