WHAT IT DOES

What add_video does on Mcptube Vision

AI agents use add_video to create or update resources in Mcptube Vision, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Mcptube Vision environment.

RISK

Why add_video is rated Medium

The tool creates new wiki knowledge pages by processing YouTube video content. This is reversible data creation (Write category), not destructive deletion or financial transactions.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Ingest a YouTube video and build wiki knowledge pages' — the 'build' verb indicates creation of structured data artifacts (wiki pages) from source material. This is a write operation that creates new persistent knowledge base entries.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs add_video safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Mcptube Vision, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For add_video, this is the rule to start with:

add_video Rate-limited

add_video 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.
