How to control set_master_volume ↓

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

Medium Risk

Based on the tool name, this likely sets the master volume level in REAPER DAW. This is a reversible write operation (volume can be changed back). The description is empty, so confidence is reduced. Misuse could disrupt audio output but is easily reversible.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'set_master_volume' — description is empty and uninformative.

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

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

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

set_master_volume 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 Reaper Reapy — 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.

How do I enforce a policy on set_master_volume? +

Register the Reaper Reapy MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for set_master_volume: 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 Reaper Reapy. Nothing to install.

What risk level is set_master_volume? +

set_master_volume is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit set_master_volume? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the set_master_volume 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.

How do I block set_master_volume completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for set_master_volume. 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.

What MCP server provides set_master_volume? +

set_master_volume is provided by the Reaper Reapy MCP server (wegitor/reaper-reapy-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Reaper Reapy tool call.
