What set_gp_key_signature does on Guitar Pro

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

Medium Risk

Why set_gp_key_signature needs a policy

Key signature is a musical parameter that can be changed or reverted, making this a Write operation rather than Destructive. The empty description lowers confidence slightly, but the tool name and sibling context (all modification tools on a Guitar Pro manipulator server) indicate it modifies rather than deletes data.

From the tool's definition Tool name is set_gp_key_signature. This tool modifies a Guitar Pro file by setting the key signature of the track, which is a reversible change to file content (analogous to sibling tools like add_gp_measure, add_gp_note that create/modify data).

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

How to control set_gp_key_signature

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 set_gp_key_signature:

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

set_gp_key_signature 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 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.
