Replace all occurrences of a font throughout the active presentation.
AI agents use ppt_replace_font to create or update resources in Ppt — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Ppt environment.
This tool modifies presentation formatting by replacing fonts across the entire active presentation. It is reversible (the previous font choice can be restored) and creates/modifies data rather than executing arbitrary code or destructively deleting content.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'ppt_replace_font' and description 'Replace all occurrences of a font throughout the active presentation' indicate modification of presentation content.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access ppt_replace_font gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Ppt, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for ppt_replace_font:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"ppt_replace_font": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "ppt_replace_font_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}ppt_replace_font 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.

Replace all occurrences of a font throughout the active presentation. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Ppt MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Ppt MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for ppt_replace_font: 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 Ppt. Nothing to install.
ppt_replace_font is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the ppt_replace_font 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for ppt_replace_font. 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.
ppt_replace_font is provided by the Ppt MCP server (ykuwai/ppt-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
