WHAT IT DOES

What youtube_tag does on Crawlora

AI agents use youtube_tag to create or update resources in Crawlora, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Crawlora environment.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`tag`	string	Yes	Tag to filter videos
`type`	string	—	Result tab to load
`continuation_token`	string	—	Continuation token for pagination, first page if empty

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why youtube_tag is rated Medium

An AI agent can call youtube_tag faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Crawlora by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs youtube_tag 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 youtube_tag, this is the rule to start with:

youtube_tag Rate-limited

youtube_tag 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.
