calls_mute_translation_tts
Mute or unmute an active call's live-translation TTS. scope='call' (default, Google Meet sessions ONLY): the translator goes silent INSIDE the call — participants hear no bot voice, in-flight audio is cut immediately, but translation audio + subtitles remain available in the app (listen overlay)....

What calls_mute_translation_tts does on Dialogbrain
AI agents invoke calls_mute_translation_tts to trigger actions in Dialogbrain. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
muted | boolean | Yes | true to mute, false to unmute. |
scope | string | — | 'call' (default; Google Meet only): silent in the call only — app audio + subtitles keep flowing. 'everywhere' (any channel): no TTS synthesis at all (subtitles |
call_id | string | Yes | The active call / Meet session call_id (UUID) — e.g. from calls.send_to_meet's session_id or calls.list_active. |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why calls_mute_translation_tts is rated High
This tool triggers an external operation on an active call session — cutting or restoring live audio synthesis in real-time. It does not merely read or write data, but executes a state change on an ongoing live communication channel (Google Meet or other). It's reversible (muted=false reverses it), so not Destructive, but the real-time external effect on active calls places it firmly in Execute.
From the tool's definition Mute or unmute an active call's live-translation TTS... the translator goes silent INSIDE the call — in-flight audio is cut immediately... stop synthesizing entirely from the next utterance
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs calls_mute_translation_tts safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Dialogbrain, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For calls_mute_translation_tts, this is the rule to start with:
calls_mute_translation_tts stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Dialogbrain, apply this rule, and every calls_mute_translation_tts call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about calls_mute_translation_tts
Mute or unmute an active call's live-translation TTS. scope='call' (default, Google Meet sessions ONLY): the translator goes silent INSIDE the call — participants hear no bot voice, in-flight audio is cut immediately, but translation audio + subtitles remain available in the app (listen overlay). scope='everywhere' (any channel): stop synthesizing entirely from the next utterance — subtitles only, no audio anywhere. muted=false reverses either. Translation itself keeps running throughout. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Dialogbrain MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
calls_mute_translation_tts accepts 3 parameters: muted, scope, call_id. Required: muted, call_id. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Dialogbrain MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for calls_mute_translation_tts: 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 Dialogbrain. Nothing to install.
calls_mute_translation_tts is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the calls_mute_translation_tts 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 calls_mute_translation_tts. 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.
calls_mute_translation_tts is provided by the Dialogbrain MCP server (https://api.dialogbrain.com/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
