Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs update_video safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Zype Com, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For update_video, this is the rule to start with:
update_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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Zype Com, apply this rule, and every update_video call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about update_video
Update a video's metadata. Only provided fields are updated. Supports all fields from create_video plus: - To add a category: provide categories array with {category_id, value} objects (call list_categories first to get the category_id). Omit id when adding. - To update an existing category entry: include the entry's id (from get_video) along with category_id and value.

Register the Zype Com MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for update_video: 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.
update_video is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the update_video 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 update_video. 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.
update_video 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.
