# video_reframe

Crops a video to a target aspect ratio (e.g. "9:16" vertical, "1:1" square, "4:5") around a focus point — for social clips. Takes the LARGEST crop of that aspect that fits, centered on focus (x,y in source pixels, top-left origin; default = center) and clamped to the frame. Audio passes through. Returns the output path + new dimensions.

## Parameters

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "video_reframe",
    "arguments": {
      "input": "<input>",
      "aspect": "<aspect>"
    }
  }
}
```

## Why video_reframe is rated Low

Even though video_reframe only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

## Use case

AI agents call video_reframe to retrieve information from Local without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Local:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "video_reframe": {}
  }
}
```
