Why project_get_info needs a policy

This tool only queries and returns information about a REAPER project's properties. It performs no data modification, deletion, code execution, or financial transaction. It is a straightforward retrieval operation that fits the 'Read' category.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'project_get_info' and description states it 'Get[s] project info (name, BPM, time sig, tracks, length, markers, render settings)' — purely retrieving metadata about an existing project with no modification or side effects.

How to control project_get_info

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

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

project_get_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 ReaperMCP — 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.
