What get_song_info does on Guitar Pro

Low Risk

Why get_song_info needs a policy

The tool retrieves metadata or data about an existing Guitar Pro song without modifying, executing operations on, or deleting content. This is consistent with Read category semantics. Low severity due to information disclosure only—no code execution, financial impact, or destructive capability. Confidence reduced from high to medium-high due to absent description.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_song_info' indicates retrieval of song information. Sibling tools are predominantly creation/modification tools (add_*, create_*), which by contrast establishes this as a query/retrieval operation.

How to control get_song_info

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_song_info": {}
  }
}

get_song_info is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Guitar Pro — 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.
