Add a chord symbol in the live score.
AI agents use add_live_chord_symbol to create or update resources in Mcp Score — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Mcp Score environment.
This tool creates or adds a new element (chord symbol) to a musical score, which is a reversible modification. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, move money, or merely read data. The 'medium' severity reflects that misuse could corrupt a musical score, but the damage is localized to notation and easily undone through standard undo/deletion operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'add_live_chord_symbol' with description 'Add a chord symbol in the live score' indicates creation of a new musical notation element.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Score, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for add_live_chord_symbol:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"add_live_chord_symbol": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "add_live_chord_symbol_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
} add_live_chord_symbol 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.
