videos_generate

Generate a short video (5-10s) from a text prompt using BytePlus Seedance. Optionally accepts up to 12 image file IDs from the user's attached files (visible in the [ATTACHMENTS] block) as reference_file_ids for style and composition. Returns immediately with a job_id; the video is delivered back...

AI agents use videos_generate to create or modify resources in Dialogbrain. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call videos_generate repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Dialogbrain.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so videos_generate only ever does what you allow.

What does the videos_generate tool do? +

Generate a short video (5-10s) from a text prompt using BytePlus Seedance. Optionally accepts up to 12 image file IDs from the user's attached files (visible in the [ATTACHMENTS] block) as reference_file_ids for style and composition. Returns immediately with a job_id; the video is delivered back via continuation when the job completes (~30-90s for fast model, ~2-5min for pro). Reference images are temporarily re-hosted on a third-party CDN (imgbb) for the duration of generation and deleted on completion — don't submit confidential references. Gated behind a workspace opt-in flag.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Dialogbrain MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on videos_generate? +

Register the Dialogbrain MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for videos_generate: 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.

What risk level is videos_generate? +

videos_generate is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit videos_generate? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the videos_generate 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.

How do I block videos_generate completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for videos_generate. 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.

What MCP server provides videos_generate? +

videos_generate 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.

Enforce policy on every Dialogbrain tool call.
