WHAT IT DOES

What move_slide does on PowerPoint Editor MCP Server

AI agents use move_slide to create or update resources in PowerPoint Editor MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your PowerPoint Editor MCP Server environment.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why move_slide needs a policy

Moving a slide reorders presentation content but does not delete, execute code, or create irreversible changes. The operation is fully reversible—slides can be moved back to their original positions. This is clearly a Write operation (modify data reversibly) rather than Destructive (which would involve deletion).

From the tool's definition Tool is named 'move_slide' and described as moving slide position (Chinese: '移动幻灯片位置'). This modifies the structure of a presentation by reordering slides, which is a reversible operation.
