What neuron_download_media does on Neuron
AI agents call neuron_download_media to retrieve information from Neuron without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
exportId | string | — | An export started earlier; returns its download link when ready. |
dueForRemoval | boolean | — | Only media that retention removes within the next 7 days. |
conversationIds | array | — | Only these conversations. |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why neuron_download_media is rated Low
Even though neuron_download_media 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 neuron_download_media safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Neuron, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For neuron_download_media, this is the rule to start with:
neuron_download_media 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 Neuron, apply this rule, and every neuron_download_media call is checked against it from then on.
