AI agents call list_videos to retrieve information from Zype Com 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 list_videos 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.

List videos from your Zype library with comprehensive filtering. FILTERING STRATEGY - Use precise filters over text search: - For category-based queries (e.g., "SNL videos", "premium content", "action movies"): → Use category filter: {"category": {"YouTube Channel": "Saturday Night Live"}} → First call list_categories to see available category names and values - For monetization queries (e.g., "subscription videos", "free content"): → Use monetization filters: subscription_required, pass_required, purchase_required - For series/episodic content: → Use series_id, season, episode filters - For batch operations on known videos: → Use id array filter instead of searching - Use q (text search) only for fuzzy title/description matching when exact filters don't apply Available Filters: - Pagination: page, per_page (max 500) - Text search: q (searches title, source_id, zobject title - use as last resort) - Status: active, on_air, featured, mature_content, friendly_title, keyword - Dates: created_at_gte/lte, published_at_gte/lte, updated_at_gte/lte - Monetization: subscription_required, pass_required, rental_required, purchase_required - Categories: category object (e.g., {"Genre": "Action", "Premium": "true"}) - Series: series_id, season - Source: source_id, dpt_enabled, country - External IDs: youtube_id, vimeo_id, crunchyroll_id, hulu_id - Batch: id (array of video IDs). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Zype Com MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Zype Com MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_videos: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Zype Com. Nothing to install.
list_videos 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 list_videos rule in your PolicyLayer 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 PolicyLayer policy for list_videos. 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.
list_videos is provided by the Zype Com MCP server (zype/zype-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
