Part of the Mcp Veo MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents call veo_get_task to retrieve information from Mcp Veo without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.
Even though veo_get_task only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.
Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

Query the status and result of a video generation task. Use this to check if a generation is complete and retrieve the resulting video URLs and metadata. Use this when: - You want to check if a generation has completed - You need to retrieve video URLs from a previous generation - You want to get the full details of a generated video Task states: - 'processing': Generation is still in progress - 'succeeded': Generation finished successfully - 'failed': Generation failed (check error message) Returns: Task status and generated video information including URLs and state. . It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcp Veo MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for veo_get_task. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Mcp Veo MCP server.
veo_get_task is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the veo_get_task rule in your Intercept 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 Intercept policy for veo_get_task. 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.
veo_get_task is provided by the Mcp Veo MCP server (acedatacloud-mcp/mcp-veo). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Open source. One binary. Zero dependencies.
