WHAT IT DOES

What select_video_type does on Cutpilot

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

RISK

Why select_video_type is rated Medium

This tool creates or modifies project configuration settings (workflow type, category selection) within an existing empty project. While no data is deleted, the configuration change is a reversible modification that affects the project's subsequent behavior. This qualifies as Write rather than Read (which would be passive retrieval) or Execute (which would invoke external operations with unpredictable effects).

From the tool's definition The tool 'Select and configure a category-first workflow for an existing empty project' involves configuration and setup of project parameters, which modifies the state of an existing project.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs select_video_type safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Cutpilot, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For select_video_type, this is the rule to start with:

select_video_type Rate-limited

select_video_type 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.
