How to control VideoDB Director ↓

High Risk

2 of VideoDB Director's 4 tools can modify, destroy, or commit something on every call — and an agent calls them with no built-in limits.

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

Rate limit write operations
{
  "call_director": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "call_director_per_hour",
        "window": "hour",
        "max": 30,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Prevents bulk unintended modifications from agents caught in loops.

Cap read operations
{
  "code_assistant": {
    "limits": [
      {
        "counter": "code_assistant_per_minute",
        "window": "minute",
        "max": 60,
        "scope": "grant"
      }
    ]
  }
}

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

How do I prevent bulk modifications through VideoDB Director? +

The VideoDB Director server has 2 write tools including call_director, play_video. Set a rate limit in your policy -- for example, 10 calls per hour prevents an agent from making more than 10 modifications per hour. PolicyLayer enforces this at the gateway, before calls reach VideoDB Director.

How many tools does the VideoDB Director MCP server expose? +

How do I enforce a policy on VideoDB Director? +

Register the VideoDB Director MCP server in PolicyLayer, apply the suggested rules above (adjust the limits to your use case), and point your AI client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL instead of the server directly. Your agents keep the same tools; PolicyLayer evaluates every call against policy before it executes. Nothing to install, live in minutes.
