MOST DANGEROUS TOOLS

High Risk

The most dangerous VideoGen Advisor tools

Execute · High generate_creative_video This tool initiates an external video generation process on Google Veo, consuming cloud compute resources and potentially incurring costs. Execute · High generate_from_template This tool triggers an external video generation operation on the HeyGen platform. Execute · High generate_video This tool triggers an external video generation operation on third-party services (HeyGen or Google Veo), executing a resource-intensive process whose effects depend on the input prompt. Execute · Medium generate_video_from_image This tool initiates an external AI video generation process (Google Veo), which constitutes executing an external operation with computational and possibly financial side effects.

5 of VideoGen Advisor's 11 tools can modify, destroy, or commit something on every call — and an agent calls them with no built-in limits.

POLICY

How to control VideoGen Advisor

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and VideoGen Advisor, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. These are the rules we recommend:

Rate limit write operations

{
  "create_avatar_video": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "create_avatar_video_per_hour",
        "window": "hour",
        "max": 30,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

Cap read operations

{
  "download_video": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "download_video_per_minute",
        "window": "minute",
        "max": 60,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Controls API costs and prevents retry loops from exhausting upstream rate limits.
