Why spreadsheet_rename_sheet needs a policy

This tool creates or modifies data reversibly (renaming is a metadata update that can be undone by renaming again). It does not delete data (would be Destructive), execute code (would be Execute), or move money (would be Financial). The 'Write' category is appropriate.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Rename a sheet tab in a Synology Spreadsheet' - the action modifies an existing sheet's name/metadata, which is a reversible update operation.

How to control spreadsheet_rename_sheet

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

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

spreadsheet_rename_sheet 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.

  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
