What google_videos does on Crawlora

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
q | string | Yes | Search query |
lang | string | — | Google UI language; defaults to en |
page | integer | — | 1-based page number; defaults to 1 |
count | integer | — | Results per page; defaults to 10, clamped to 1..50 |
country | string | — | Two-letter country code; defaults to us |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why google_videos is rated Low
Even though google_videos 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.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs google_videos safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Crawlora, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For google_videos, this is the rule to start with:
google_videos is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Crawlora, apply this rule, and every google_videos call is checked against it from then on.
